Temple Information

 

 

Temple Description

 

We are a Reform Temple affiliated with the Union for Reform Judaism. As Naples' primary place of Jewish worship since 1962, Temple Shalom is a source of religious enhancement, and a place for spiritual guidance and solace in time of need. Our members, from all Jewish backgrounds, find in Temple membership a sense of identity and attachment.

 

We emphasize present day Jewish values and historic experience through Shabbat, Holiday observance and education for congregants of all ages. Bar and Bat Mitzvah training includes highlighting the contemporary meaning of being Jewish. Adult education nourishes our commitment to learning and continuity.

 

Rabbi Brad Bloom became the Spiritual Leader in July of 2006. Rabbi Baht Weiss became Assistant Rabbi on July 6, 2006.

 

Our Friday Shabbat Services are the focus of the Temple week and are the foundation reinforcing the continuing religious growth of our membership. This, coupled with our Saturday morning more traditional service, satisfies the various degrees of observance within our community.

 

The Temple's fully licensed schools include preschool, kindergarten, and the Rabbi Abraham Shusterman Religious School. Key educational goals include learning Hebrew, Jewish history and traditional Bible study. The program features Family Education with parents and children learning together.

Fulfilling the Jewish commitment to education is a goal of Temple Shalom. With our adult education series as the mainstay of this program, this series offers regular courses in Jewish history, culture and religion throughout the year.

 

The Temple's Youth Program is an important component in the growth of Judaism in Collier County. Both senior and junior groups affiliated with SEFTY (Southeast Federation of Temple Youth) enjoy many fun-filled educational and social activities.

 

Our Youth continue to participate in the UHAC Camp Coleman Summer Program.

Temple Shalom's congregation, both year round and seasonal, find a rich social life in the contacts made through membership Sisterhood, Men's Club, and Youth Groups play a major part in these activities.

It's easy to become a member. Stop by or call the Temple office at (239)455-3030 for an application. Our members support the financial needs of the Temple through a schedule of annual dues, as well as a Building Fund, and by voluntary contributions.
