Lawrence Jewish Community Congregation

Lawrence Jewish Community Congregation The mission of the Lawrence Jewish Community Congregation (LJCC) is to be a thriving and inclsuive center for Jewish life in Lawrence, KS.

The Lawrence Jewish Community Congregation (LJCC) was founded in 1954 by a small group of Jewish families living in the Lawrence area. Prior to 1954 there had been no place of worship for Jews, and today the LJCC is still the area’s only full-service congregation. It is both a synagogue and a center for Jewish life in Lawrence. The LJCC provides weekly Friday night Shabbat services and full High H

oliday and festival services. Services are in Hebrew and English, with much community singing. The LJCC is unaffiliated and alternates use of Reform, Conservative and Reconstructionist prayer books.
