Leyv Ha-Ir (לב העיר) ~ Heart of the City is a growing congregation with approximately 50 individual and family members. A typical Shabbat service is attended by 30-40 people. Holiday celebrations may have up to 200 participants or more.

Non-members are welcome to attend our services and programs, but members become part of the Leyv Ha-Ir family and can be actively involved in its committees and meetings.

• Suggested Couple/Family Membership: $750 - $1500/year

Members pay according to their abilities—we never turn anyone away. Dues and contributions to Congregation Leyv Ha-Ir are tax deductible.
