The Temple

The Temple- a Reform synagogue founded in 1867.

One of American Judaism’s most historic, vibrant and diverse synagogues, Atlanta's oldest synagogue and home to more then 1,500 families. For a century and a half, it has built a tradition of social justice work and a commitment to broadening people’s access to a full Jewish life.

The Temple hosts a vibrant religious school and one of Atlanta’s most respected early learning centers. We are proud of how each member brings his or her own story to our diverse community—such as those who have a multi-generational history at The Temple and those new to Atlanta or The Temple, those who identify as interfaith, LGBT, have children with special learning needs, and those of all ages and backgrounds who are seeking a Jewish community – a place to call home.

As a Reform congregation, we are rooted in tradition and also blessed with a focus on the future needs of the Jewish people. We are eager to bring you into a stronger connection with Judaism and show you why Newsweek magazine has named us one of the 25 most vibrant congregations in America.
