We treasure our close relationship with the First Congregational Church,

which shares its smaller adjoining sanctuary building and other facilities with us.

ABOUT GSJC ...  

 

In the beginning ...

In 1984, the Greater Southington Jewish Congregation was founded by families interested in creating a Jewish presence in this suburban Connecticut town.  The first priority of the group was to maintain a community atmosphere in which each person felt like a family member.

Now called Gishrei Shalom Jewish Congregation, we are a small, dynamic, Reform congregation committed to the spiritual and educational growth of our members within a warm and supportive Jewish environment. GSJC reaches out to the entire Jewish community, including interfaith families.

Why GSJC?

GSJC provides a close, family atmosphere for Jewish observance, learning, and worship. Friday evening Shabbat Services are held twice a month. We celebrate Jewish holidays together, provide family workshops and numerous social activities.  Our youth and adult religious education programs are the nucleus of many synagogue events. Our members take an active role in helping GSJC come alive with Jewish meaning and warmth.

A Sense of Community

The Gishrei Shalom Jewish Congregation can provide a Jewish community, not just a place to pray.  GSJC appreciates its members for their unique talents and interests.  Tzedakah (charity) and tikun olam (repairing the world) are important mitzvot at GSJC, and its members are encouraged to participate.  We offer many opportunities to become involved.  GSJC provides countless ways to develop connections with other caring people in the area.  

We look forward to sharing with you

 all that Gishrei Shalom Jewish Congregation has to offer!
