Welcome to Temple Emanu El
Temple Emanu El is more than a house of worship. It’s a community of long-time and newly engaged members, young families and congregants from all backgrounds. Our families and singles share a similar commitment to Judaism - enthusiasm for learning, a passion for social causes, and a strong sense of building relationships within Temple Emanu El. You can literally hear the difference as soon as you walk in. There’s a buzz in the air of people connecting. You hear it in the laughter within the preschool, the hum of religious school conversations, the spirited Talkin’ Torah with Rabbi Matt, and the singing during our lively Shabbat services. Our roots run deep, growing stronger from one generation to the next.
For generations, Temple Emanu El - a Refrom synagogue east of Cleveland in Orange, OH - has been welcoming singles and couples of all ages and families to joyous, participatory Shabbat and holiday services. Our sought-after preschool and religious school strengthen Jewish identity in our youth. We welcome everyone - interfaith, interracial, and all sexual identities - to a rich calendar of worship, advocacy, educational and social programming. More...
