About Congregation Mickve Israel
Welcome to the website of Congregation Mickve Israel, the third oldest Jewish congregation in America. We are a community of Jews who have been practicing our faith for over 280 years. Our congregation is located in Savannah, Georgia, and we welcome all those who wish to join us in worship and celebration.
At Congregation Mickve Israel, we believe that our faith is not just a religion but a way of life. We strive to create an environment where everyone feels welcome and included regardless of their background or beliefs. Our community is made up of people from all walks of life who come together to celebrate our shared heritage.
Our synagogue has a rich history that dates back to 1733 when the first Jewish settlers arrived in Savannah. Since then, we have grown into one of the most vibrant and active congregations in America. We offer a wide range of programs and services that cater to people from all age groups.
One thing that sets us apart from other synagogues is our commitment to social justice issues. We believe that it is important for us as Jews to stand up for what we believe in and fight against injustice wherever it may be found. That's why we are actively involved in various social justice initiatives both locally and nationally.
Our synagogue also offers various educational programs for children as well as adults who wish to learn more about Judaism or deepen their understanding of it. From Hebrew classes to Torah study sessions, there's something for everyone at Congregation Mickve Israel.
In addition, we also offer various cultural events throughout the year such as concerts, art exhibits, film screenings etc., which showcase Jewish culture and heritage.
