Membership

We would love for you to consider becoming part of Temple Judea’s active congregation and enjoy an enriched Jewish life.

Temple Judea was founded in 1965 as a center to worship, congregate and socialize for Jews of South Orange County and beyond. In the ensuing years the Temple has grown to become a full-service Conservative caring Jewish community full of forward looking ideas, assuring that the Temple will continue to meet the social, cultural, educational and religious needs of the community.

We pride ourselves on being a family with the richness and diversity of all families, and welcome each new member as an extension of that family. In the spirit of friendship, and as a way to introduce ourselves, we welcome every new member with wine, challah and Shabbat prayers. What better way than that to say “Welcome.” Please come see us, come to one of our religious services, and join with us in celebrating Shabbat.

Shabbat services begin at 7:30 P.M. on Friday evenings, with contemporary services, followed by an Oneg Shabbat. Our Shabbat morning services begin at 9:30 A.M., followed by a Kiddush. Minyan services are held every Monday and Thursday morning at 9:00 A.M. in our Smotrich Chapel. Temple Judea is fashioned in such a way to appeal to all spiritual needs and to celebrate all life cycle events.

If you are looking to connect with something timeless and meaningful, by all means come and join our warm, extended family.
