Our Values

Kehila / Community - Oheb Shalom is dedicated to the creation of a multi-generational community that sustains and inspires each one of its members. At Oheb Shalom, friendships are born that endure for a lifetime. Our community enables us to draw closer to our Jewish heritage and our shared ideals.

Limud Torah / Learning - At Oheb Shalom, learning is a gateway to deeper faith, spirituality and commitment to a Jewish way of life. We are dedicated to the study of Torah, to Jewish education and to learning for all members of our community.

Tikun Olam / Healing the World - Oheb Shalom has long carried on a deep tradition of community service, and we take great pride in the strength of our many social action programs. We believe that awareness leads to activism as we go about the sacred task of repairing our world.

Masoret / Tradition - Oheb Shalom is dedicated to preserving and honoring the Jewish tradition as a living, vibrant way of finding deeper meaning in daily life. We honor halakha, Jewish law, as a guide for living as Jews. We recognize that Judaism is organic and that halakha must adapt to new social and religious circumstances.
