Desert Outreach Synagogue aims to gather people to worship, study, and celebrate our traditions and happy occasions. We are an open and affirming congregation, inclusive rather than exclusive. We support one another through difficult times and work towards social justice for all.
Our objectives are to serve unaffiliated Jewish people who prefer not to pay the costs associated with membership in a traditional Synagogue. Secondly, we are committed to providing a space for non-conforming Jewish people who want to connect with their Jewish heritage and culture and interfaith families who need a place to call home.
We celebrate our Jewish heritage in an egalitarian atmosphere that invites participation and creativity. Desert Outreach Synagogue is where the creative meets the alternative and blends with the traditional.
Our synagogue offers opportunities for individuals and families to enrich their lives, connect with others, and discover their relationship with Judaism through spiritual connection, observances, educational programs, and social gatherings.
“We are not your grandfather’s shul!” We are an inclusive and exciting Jewish community where you can reconnect or connect for the first time.
We blend the creative into our services. Rabbi Jules is not about labels. We welcome everyone- Reform, Conservative, Orthodox, the unaffiliated, secular; we are inclusive, and all are welcome here.
