The United Synagogue

Vision & Mission


The Vision

The United Synagogue strives to be a modern and united family of communities with members connected to vibrant Jewish life and Torah values.

The Mission

The mission of the US Executive Office is to serve its communities and to lead the organisation by

● Initiating, developing and supporting communities and helping them provide relevant and high quality services to their members.

● Providing the infrastructure for Jewish religious life.

● Developing creative programmes, which involve members and potential members in Jewish life and values.

● Recruiting, developing and maintaining outstanding Rabbis and other professional staff, lay leaders and volunteers.

The United Synagogues values stem from the principles of both Torah and Halacha. We wish to welcome every Jew, create a sense of belonging and allow for life-long Jewish learning, spiritual growth and religious practice. We strongly believe in the centrality of Israel in Jewish life, and in the importance of mutual responsibility.
