Here, everyone is welcome. We are a fully inclusive, egalitarian, and independent congregation representing all branches of Judaism. Our community is made up of people of all ages and backgrounds, including interfaith, LGBTQ, and single-parent families. Some of us live here full-time, while others are part-timers or frequent visitors to the Stowe area.

Robust children and family programs include weekly Hebrew school, holiday events, and a monthly young families Shabbat.
