Giving Circle
NSP launched its first Giving Circle in March 2021, seeking to provide one more way for our community to come together to act on our shared values and fulfill NSP’s mission of reflecting the world of justice, equity, and liberation for which we strive.
Justice
Our Justice Team is shaping how we live out our social justice values as a community. We build relationships with grassroots organizations, sit on city-wide coalitions, engage in political advocacy and education, and show up in solidarity with marginalized communities.
Kaleidoscope
Kaleidoscope space within the New Synagogue Project is led by people of color, Sephardi/Mizrahi Jews, and other individuals directly impacted by colonialism and racism. Kaleidoscope is committed to uplifting the unique identities and insights of our community.
Kids
NSP engages kids and parents in our community through a variety of programs, such as:
- Kollel, our school-aged kids’ education program
- Tot Shabbat and Bereishit Playgroup on Shabbat mornings for ages 0-5
- Kids’ Team parties and meet-ups throughout the year
Learning
We offer adult learning courses and workshops throughout the year, such as Introduction to Jewish Practice, Leyning for Liberation, and the Poetry of Kabbalat Shabbat.
Shabbat & Holidays
We gather for a variety of songful, soulful services for all ages for Shabbat, holidays, and Havdalah. To see upcoming services, check out our events calendar. Services are led by community members and Rabbi Yosef together.
Spirituality & Ritual
We host monthly Havdalah & Tisch Community Sings, ritual workshops, and support new service leaders to lead our community in soulful, songful services.
