Welcome image

Congregation Emeth is the Jewish community in the South Valley, a Reform congregation with a welcoming spirit and diverse membership. We attract members from Morgan Hill, Gilroy, South San Jose, San Martin, Hollister and beyond.  We engage in lifelong learning, worship, social action, and community while celebrating Judaic spiritual and cultural traditions. About half our members are interfaith families. We welcome all who desire a meaningful Jewish connection as we grow together, creating a vibrant Jewish presence in the South Valley.

Our religious services and K-12 religious school are offered at our new home at 17835 Monterey Street in Morgan Hill. After 30 years, we are excited about establishing a permanent site in Morgan Hill to serve as both the center of Jewish cultural/social activities and as the congregational home for Emeth.

From Our Rabbi  

Rabbi 2010The essence of home is family.  When you step across the threshold, you are reminded about times past and hopes for the future.  In a loving home, one feels a connection that transcends time and space. Your spiritual home is no different.  In a synagogue, one feels a link to generations before and experiences the visions and dreams of the future.

Congregation Emeth invites you to join our extended family and be part of our spiritual home!  We are a caring community who will rejoice with you during happy times and comfort you during sadness.  At Congregation Emeth, the hand of friendship and welcome is always offered.  We have taken down the walls that close hearts and opened the door to a deeper and more meaningful experience of what it means to be part of a Jewish community and connected to God.

Congregation Emeth welcomes people from diverse Jewish backgrounds and traditions.  We embrace interfaith families as well as non-Jews who are on the path to conversion.  We welcome LGBTs.

Come learn with us! Come celebrate Shabbat, holidays, and personal milestones with us!  Come help us bring Torah alive!  Here at Congregation Emeth you will find people who want to make a difference in the lives of one another, impact the greater community, and elevate the degree of holiness in our world.  We are waiting to welcome you, to have you become part of our congregational family.

Come home to Congregation Emeth!
