The Little Minyan provides a spiritual home for individuals and families seeking active participation in a Jewish community. We see the need and the opportunity to build a vibrant 21st century Jewish community through innovative and interactive approaches to prayers, learning, and social action.
We assume a collective responsibility to ensure that every person is valued and treated with respect. We are an inclusive, welcoming people with diverse life experiences and backgrounds. Our commitment is further reflected in our use of gender-neutral prayer language, egalitarian decision-making processes, and recognition for members' participation without regard to their ability to contribute financially.
The Little Minyan is not a community where people send a check, sit back, and only join in for High Holy Day services. We are more like a family and encourage family members to roll up their sleeves and participate in opportunities such as our work and study teams, worship, celebrations, Tikkun Olam, and other events. We support those who have never participated in synagogue life, allowing them to get involved, learn, and enjoy. We make it easy, welcoming, and interesting!
