Congregation Kol Ami, West Hollywood's reform synagogue, is a progressive congregation rooted in rich Jewish tradition, and committed to social justice, Israel, and diversity! Our commitment to progressive spirituality, diversity, inclusion and social justice has been celebrated nationwide. Kol Ami, West Hollywood’s premier Reform synagogue, has grown to be an award-winning congregation by daring
to be innovative while remaining rooted in Jewish tradition and practice. Rabbi Eger once summed up beautifully why we exist as a synagogue.
“I believe Judaism has ancient wisdom for our contemporary lives. That is why I study it, teach it and try to live a life of Jewish values and meaning. Judaism has spiritual depth that continues to speak to us in our day and time.”
The constant search for identity, justice, wisdom, love—in short, a life well-lived— is what brings us together as a community. We return to our roots for guidance and we turn to each other for support and friendship.
“May we be reminded of our journey through the wilderness. May we be reminded of all the places we stopped and started again. And may we be reminded that we can yet dream and become the people God imagined us to be.” – Rabbi Denise Eger
