Hamakomla

Hamakomla HAMAKOM is The Place for Conservative Judaism in the West San Fernando Valley, where we transform the ordinary into the extraordinary.

Temple Aliyah Is:

A modern, egalitarian congregation, pre-school, religious school, adult education and worship center, founded in 1962, with an innovative approach to Conservative Jewish values

A warm and inviting atmosphere celebrating Torah and the traditions of Jewish life through the values of education, spirituality and community

A place where bridges are built to strengthen Jewish life a

nd enhance relations with other faith communities

Everyone’s unique. Yet no matter where you are in your life, you can experience Jewish life to its fullest with Temple Aliyah. Some look to a synagogue for inspiring messages from the Rabbis. Others want songful prayers from the Hazzanim and Cantors. Still others simply want to be part of a social congregation and participate in programs that exemplify Jewish living. At Temple Aliyah, you’ll find exactly what you want — in a home for long-term spiritual growth that celebrates every step of the journey. For children, Temple Aliyah is a place to flourish and find their Jewish identity. For adults, it’s a place to gather, worship and socialize with others who share similar beliefs and values. For grandparents and other family members, it’s a place to share holidays and celebratory events that create strong memories and even stronger ties. Temple Aliyah is more than a synagogue, religious school, pre-school — it is a community. We’re a caring community of people — each unique like you — looking to grow and share the Jewish journey together. At Temple Aliyah, your family is our most important concern. Whether yours is a traditional or non-traditional household, a single parent home, a blended family, an intermarried family, or have a family member with special needs, there are programs designed for you.

Shabbat Shalom, Hamakom family!

We are pleased to share that the Jewish Journal of Greater Los Angeles has just published the first article in a special three-part feature honoring Rabbi Richard Camras and Rabbi Stewart Vogel!

The article beautifully captures their incredible friendship, their decades of dedicated service, and the shared vision that successfully brought Temple Aliyah and Shomrei Torah Synagogue together to form our beautiful Hamakom community.

As they prepare to transition to Rabbi Emeritus status at the end of this month, we invite you to take a moment before or after Shabbat to read this wonderful tribute to their legacy.

Stay tuned for parts two and three in the coming weeks!

On Sunday, we honored Rabbi Vogel and Rabbi Camras with a brunch!

We ate delicious food, sang together, and gave the Rabbis a special gift.

Our teachers and kids gifted the wonderful Rabbis honorary benches in their names, so they know they will always have seats here at Hamakom!

We are immensely grateful for all their love, dedication, and leadership. Thank you, Rabbi Camras and Rabbi Vogel!

The Legacy Gala last night was one for the ages, as we honored Rabbi Vogel and Rabbi Camras. They also introduced Generations Together: The Camras-Vogel Legacy Project, which continues their visionary work by creating a model of engagement rooted in the very values they championed: intergenerational connection, experiential learning, and the belief that Torah comes alive most fully when it is shared across the generations.
