We are a community built on the idea that the divine spark lives in each of us. Together, these sparks create something vibrant and joyful鈥攔ich with talents, gifts, and shared purpose. At 海角原创 we believe diversity strengthens us and that everyone has something meaningful to contribute.

We can鈥檛 wait to welcome you into our temple family, a place to connect and feel at home. As a member, you鈥檒l help build our sacred community while enjoying meaningful benefits, including:
We are a warm and welcoming Reform Jewish community. About 40% of our households have one adult that is not Jewish, and both adults are entitled to all the benefits of membership.听(We have an ongoing group called Mothers Circle that encourages and supports our non-Jewish mothers raising Jewish children.)听Please听join us for a听Shabbat service so you can experience the musical,听spiritual听and communal听essence of TRS.听
During your first year of membership, you will be invited to听several听new member events. These are great听opportunities听to get to know our clergy听and staff, lay听leaders听and other new members in a smaller setting. We also encourage you to choose a few programs听or a small group听(TRS Tents)听to help you get more connected. We’re here to help you along the way!
At 海角原创, we ask each household to contribute 2% of their Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) as an annual 鈥淔air Share鈥 Membership Contribution. This approach allows each member to give in a way that is meaningful and sustainable for them. Security and Facility Maintenance fees are assessed separately. No one is ever excluded from membership for financial reasons.
To estimate your contribution, use 2% of your household income. You can reference your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) from your tax return (line 11 on Form 1040), though any reasonable estimate is fine.
Enter your income below to see your suggested annual contribution. This tool is for your convenience only鈥攜our information is not stored or saved.
