Temple Israel of Alameda

My family is active at Temple Israel in the city of Alameda. Our temple is a warm, welcoming congregation that surrounds you with good humor and a sense of community. It was established in 1920 for an active group of Jews in Alameda, which is family-oriented. Phone 510-522-9355. 

The educator is also our Cantor, Brian Reich. Our daughter was bat mitzvah’ed and had wonderful support. Please send an email to Cantor Brian, as we call him, at educator [at] templeisraelalameda.org. Copy the Rabbi and Office at Rabbi [at] templeisraelalameda.org and Office [at] templeisraelalameda.org. Rabbi Chester has bar/batmitzvah’d many youngsters. Sarai is our responsive Office Manager.

You and your son are invited to weekly Friday night services and to celebrate the several annual holidays with children his age. For now, most of this is on Zoom. We are a family oriented Reform synagogue, with easy access and lots of parking. Best to you and your son, Joyce Chelouche August (JC Gma)
