Congregation Sha'ar

Sha'ar ('gate') is a new Jewish community in the Tenafly area. Its name recalls the eight gates leading into the Old City of Jerusalem and suggests the figurative gates we might pass through while on our spiritual journey. People experience Jewish life from a variety of perspectives. Sha'ar dreams to offer multiple gateways through which seekers can pass to create connections to Judaism and to community. Our name, Sha'ar is formed in the singular to convey the sacredness of each of the gates through which we travel.
