Am Echad Orthodox, nestled in San Jose, CA, offers a welcoming and vibrant Orthodox experience in the heart of Silicon Valley. Led by Rav Avi Lebowitz and Rabbi Reuven Goldstein, it stands as the sole shul in San Jose holding regular daily minyanim. The diverse congregation comprises Ashkenazi and Sephardi members from various backgrounds, creating a harmonious environment for all.
Located within the San Jose Community Eruv, Am Echad provides a central hub for worship and community engagement. Limited in-house lodging capacity prompts the shul to recommend nearby hotels for visitors seeking accommodations, ensuring a peaceful stay within a mile's distance. Guests are warmly welcomed to partake in Shabbos meals, subject to availability of host families, fostering a sense of hospitality and camaraderie.
With a commitment to Orthodox Torah values, Am Echad upholds a serious yet friendly atmosphere, inviting all to join in prayer, study, and fellowship. The shul's Weekly Bulletin keeps members informed about upcoming events and classes, offering a valuable resource to stay connected with the community's activities and opportunities for involvement.
