Shir Hadash is a caring and welcoming group guided by the value Judaism places on learning and doing (na’asech v’nishmah). Through study and prayer, we encounter a tradition that tells us to make a difference in the world by caring for the people around us and the world in which we live. We seek and create opportunities to empower and engage people to participate actively in Jewish life. Shir Hada
sh creates a sense of community and caring through the active engagement of its members in the way we conduct our services, approach social justice opportunities, and integrate music and the arts into our experience of Judaism. As a small, participatory community, we appreciate the involvement of all our members. New perspectives, intellectual curiosity, spiritual exploration, and creativity are encouraged and welcome. This is a hallmark of the Reconstructionist movement, which as a modern approach to Judaism seeks to integrate our Jewish identities with the world around us. Shir Hadash Reconstructionist Community meets in the Beit Midrash at the JCC Staenberg Family Complex, 2 Millstone Campus Dr., St Louis, 63146.
