Welcome

Come and join us at Adath Israel. We are a vibrant, active, multi-generational community rooted in traditional Conservative Judaism. Our Mission is to inspire meaningful lives through deep engagement with God, Torah, Israel, and Chesed. Adath Israel is blessed with the resources of a large synagogue, but the feeling of a close-knit community. With 115 years of history, we have a solid foundation upon which we continue to build for the Jewish future.

Our Congregation goes back to the turn of the 20th Century when Jewish immigrants from Roumania sought refuge from the strangeness of their new environment. Today, our members and guests come from across the Toronto area to join in our uplifting services and participate in our programs that range from pre-nursery school to Club L’Chayim for older adults. At Adath Israel, Judaism comes alive and brings meaning to your life. There is something for everyone.

Spiritually Speaking

Rabbi Cutler: In his essay Exhaustion and Fulfillment: The Ascetic in a Canoe, prime minister Pierre Elliot Trudeau, who once paddled from Montreal to Hudson Bay, wrote that following a canoe trip, a person “will have returned a more ardent believer from a time when religion, like everything else, became simple. The impossibility of scandal creates a new morality, and prayer becomes a friendly chiding of the divinity, who has again become part of our everyday affairs.”
