Our Vision

Temple Israel’s Vision for Learning

Temple Israel of Natick strives to inspire an enthusiasm and a love for Judaism. Jewish learning at Temple Israel is limitless, ageless, and stretches beyond our classroom walls.  We recognize and appreciate that each member has a unique Jewish educational journey.  Our clergy, educators, lay leaders, and members form a community of learners who accompany each other on paths of lifelong learning.

Temple Israel’s Statement of Inclusion

In striving to be a sacred community (Kehillah Kedoshah), Temple Israel of Natick provides multiple gateways for both the mind and spirit. Since partnering with the Ruderman Foundation, however, we have begun to broaden that vision of multiple gateways to address physical, and gender-related, as well as spiritual and intellectual diversity.  This new journey is an unfolding revelation for us, and we are grateful for this expanded vision, which has the potential to touch lives!

Vision for our Award Winning Grades 3-5 Elective Program

At Temple Israel of Natick learners and educators will experience and feel the richness and depth of sacred Jewish texts and be inspired to share their learning with others as we create a more connected community.
