Rodeph Shalom Vision Statement
♦ Immersed in Jewish time ♦ Guided by enduring values ♦ Compelled to moral action
We create profound connections
Immersed in Jewish time
Sustained by the sacred rhythms of the Jewish year, pivotal moments of the Jewish life
cycle, and generations of Jewish history, we are part of something greater than ourselves.
Living in Jewish time teaches us how to express meaning in the everyday, to gather as a
community, and to walk with each other through the joys and sorrows of our lives.
Guided by enduring values
The timeless wisdom of our tradition inspires our intentional quest for truth,
righteousness, and purpose amid the uncertainties we face in our world. We dedicate
ourselves to Judaism’s ethical messages to treat each other with loving-kindness. The
faithful, the skeptic—and those who perceive God in different ways—wrestle to renew
the teachings of Torah for our present and for the future of the Jewish people.
Compelled to moral action
In a broken world, we commit to be a voice of conscience and to engage in the work of
social justice. From our doorstep to our neighborhood and beyond, we welcome the
stranger and embrace our responsibility to connect with and learn from others.
We create profound connections
We seek meaning in shared experiences and cherish our diverse perspectives. We who
are new to synagogue life or have extensive Jewish backgrounds; we who are Jewish or
who share our lives with Jews; we who live within different family constellations, who
are of all abilities, gender identities, sexual orientations, races, and generations: we enter
the synagogue to celebrate, to learn, to laugh, to heal, to pray, to challenge ourselves,
and to connect with others about the deepest questions of our lives.

Blessed are you, Adonai our God, Sovereign of the universe,
who finding favor with us, sanctified us with mitzvot.
In love and favor, You made the holy Shabbat our heritage as a reminder
of the work of Creation. As first among our sacred days, it recalls the
Exodus from Egypt. You chose us and set us apart from the peoples.
In love and favor You have given us Your holy Shabbat as an inheritance.
Blessed are you, Adonai, who sanctifies Shabbat.
BLESSED ARE YOU, Adonai our God, Sovereign of the universe,
who brings forth bread from the earth.
