-
What unites us is our sense of Jewish identity, our determination to give it meaning and purpose, our openness and inclusivity, our commitment to the Jewish journey.
-
We share a recognition that there are many ways of experiencing the faith of Judaism, understanding Torah and loving Israel.
-
each of us is responsible for his or her personal Jewish journey and there are many of them, many paths, many ways
-
There is no one pathway that everyone must follow to be authentic
-
While men and women are not necessarily seen as identical, they are treated equally in terms of access to leadership, learning and engagement
-
Reform Judaism is Judaism’s most positive response to the terrain of the last 200 years.
-
the authentic Jewish voice is maintained through an unmediated engagement with Jewish texts and tradition
-
We understand that there are few values greater than humility in the truth claims we make and working with others to repair the world.
-
'The mission of the Movement for Reform Judaism is to reach out to people and meet them ‘where they are’ in the world of the 21st century -
we serve God not just through prayer and ritual but in the way we behave towards our fellow human beings
-
Reform Jews are those who don’t underestimate the challenge of modernity but can also see that it offers new ways of understanding and thinking
-
Efforts are made to welcome people and help them deepen their Jewish commitments and learning, without expending energy on defining the boundaries of who is in and who is out.
-
Different interpretations are welcomed, and critical thinking encouraged.
-
We include Jews whom the outside world might call secular – Jews who have major questions about belief and who do not express their spirituality through prayer
-
We see the Torah as our foundation document and love Jewish learning.
-
We are there to engage with people and facilitate the individual journey, which can take many different forms and paths.
