Who we are What we believe What we do

There are many ways to be a secular Jew. Some of us enjoy Shabbat rituals that include nontheistic blessings; others choose to attend a study group or social action event. While SJC provides opportunities for a variety of secular Jewish expression, our community is based on the following shared principles:

Judaism is the evolving culture and civilization of the Jewish people. It draws its strength from a wide variety of cultural roots and social movements.

We have the power and the responsibility to shape our lives according to our evolving individual beliefs and values independent of divine authority.

Community is integral to Judaism.

Jewish culture and education are essential to the continuity of our community.

Social action is an important and necessary expression of our Jewish values and traditions.
