We welcome your interest in joining our shul. The First Narayever is an egalitarian Jewish congregation, unaffiliated with any religious movement, and committed to:

  1. conducting Jewish religious services in a traditional manner and making no gender-specific role differentiations;
  2. building a kehila kedosha, rooted in love of torah, Israel and the Jewish people;
  3. providing educational programs for youths and adults;
  4. promoting the concept of tikun olam through social action projects and by raising funds for tzedakah;
  5. creating and maintaining a welcoming spiritual environment in which to celebrate simchas as well as to grieve and mourn losses;
  6. fostering social and cultural activities which create a strong sense of community; and
  7. contributing to the vitality of the downtown Toronto Jewish community.
