Rabbi Katie said it best: Or Shalom’s journey is far from done. What’s been true of us for the last 33 years is now truer than ever: when we show up together, we grow together. We survived the worst days of the pandemic, thanks in no small part to song and prayer, movement and dance, and service to others. Now it’s time for us to begin a new chapter. As San Francisco’s center of Jewish Reconstructionist spirituality, thought leadership, and community, we’ve always been about evolution and change. What sets Or Shalom apart is that we’re bold, relevant, and barrier-free. Here’s what we mean: Or Shalom is bold. Our approach to Judaism is a call to action and a belief in the power of connection. We’re determined to make a difference for our city, state, country, and planet. Or Shalom is relevant. We’re not afraid to ask the big questions and search for meaning. Through our services, adult education, children's programming, and social justice and action activities, we connect Torah to today. Or Shalom is barrier-free. We welcome everyone with heartfelt love. There’s no set mold or criteria to join our community, and you don’t have to be Jewish to be welcomed and to participate at Or Shalom. We hope you’ll remain members of our community. It’s hard to put a number on the value of an Or Shalom membership, which includes a full menu of year-long programming and tickets to High Holy Days. Please remember, there are no financial barriers to be a member at Or Shalom. We only ask that you contribute what is best for you. And, if you have not done so already, consider quarterly or monthly installments for your financial commitment. Please reach out to our executive director Amy Mallor (amy@orshalom.org) if you’d like to discuss other arrangements.
