Kol Rinah is an inclusive community where all congregants can feel comfortable along their personal life journey and live a meaningful Jewish life today. Through different opportunities for prayer, learning and celebrations we strive to build a caring community of family and friends. We welcome you to share your talent, passion and voice and join our Kol Rinah family!
