This Shabbat

Welcome · ברוכים הבאים

Your home
away from home.

The Israeli address for Jewish life in San Antonio. Inspired by the spirit of Israel and built on timeless Jewish values, we've created more than a place to gather—we've created a home. A home where every Jew is welcomed like family, lifelong friendships are formed, traditions come alive, and no matter how far you are from Israel, you'll always feel that you're home.

A warm living room — just a little more Jewish.

From Israelis passing through Texas to families putting down roots, students at UTSA & Trinity, and travelers looking for a Shabbat meal — everyone who walks in becomes family.

Shabbat & Chagim

Weekly Friday night dinners. Pesach seder. Chanukah, Purim, Rosh Hashanah — the whole year, the way you remember it at home.

Torah, Chassidut, Hebrew

Tuesday night classes for adults. One-on-one Torah study with Rabbi Tal. A weekly Thursday Lunch & Learn. A Hebrew Academy for those who want to keep the language alive.

Life — from brit to chuppah

Brit milah, bar/bat mitzvah, weddings, shiva. Spiritual guidance in the easy seasons and the heavy ones. Whenever you need a rabbi who speaks your language.
