Are you interested in learning more about options for Jewish culture, life, and education in the Attleboro area? Maybe you’re thinking about joining a synagogue but haven’t found the right one yet. Congregation Agudas Achim is hosting its annual Open House on Sunday, August 24 from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm to welcome potential members or those seeking to get involved with a Jewish community. The synagogue is at 901 North Main St., Attleboro, MA.
This late-summer get-together will offer members and visitors a chance to relax, share food, and schmooze. Children’s activities will include making Tzedakah boxes which they will get to take home; all materials and supervision will be provided. Members and Hebrew school staff will be available to discuss membership opportunities, the school curricula, and other synagogue programming, including Friday evening community catered meals, arts and music, intergenerational learning, Torah study, and special services throughout the year.
Congregation Agudas Achim offers a welcoming, thoughtful, and vibrant community committed to lifelong learning. Our community includes many interfaith families and LGBTQ+ members. The Hebrew School offers classes for students from kindergarten through grade 8. The goal is to create a community for members of all ages that provides a gateway to Jewish living and offers a comfortable, warm, and inviting experience for all.
The Congregation attracts members from southeastern Massachusetts and northern Rhode Island and is affiliated with the Reconstructionist movement. Reconstructionist Judaism is a progressive, contemporary approach to Jewish life that integrates a deep respect for traditional Judaism with the insights and ideas of contemporary social, intellectual, and spiritual life.
Synagogue membership and enrollment in Hebrew School are ongoing. For more information, visit www.agudasma.org.
