Temple B'nai Shalom

The Temple in the Woods.

For more than 40 years Congregation Sha'aray Shalom has been a diverse and welcoming Jewish community on Boston's South Shore. Our congregation's home is on historic and beautiful Main Street in Hingham. A member of the Union for Reform Judaism, we have approximately 275 families from more than 20 towns ranging from Boston to Plymouth, with primary concentrations in Hingham, Cohasset, Scituate, Marshfield, Hull and Hanover. We are led by a dynamic clergy team of Rabbi Shira Joseph and Cantor Steven Weiss and offer weekly Shabbat services as well as a full calendar of festival celebrations, a full program religious school with nearly 200 students and varied adult learning as well as social programs. Ours has always been a tradition of an open door . We strive to make sure that everyone- Jews by choice or by birth as well as their non-Jewish family members - feels at home. Our strength draws on a commitment to build a community that honors and respects the diversity of our own backgrounds. What matters to us is that you want to be a part of our congregational community. Prospective Members Shabbat Services We hope you will join us throughout the summer and throughout the year. The last two weeks of August and the first two weeks of September are designated as special Shabbatot to welcome in those who would like to learn more information about our synagogue. Membership Committee members will be on hand to greet you, a tour of the building as well as an opportunity to answer all of your questions.
