Reconstructionist Judaism
Reconstructionists approach
Judaism — and life — with
deep reverence for the past
and a passion to relate it to
the present.

We view Judaism as the
evolving civilization of the
Jewish people in an ongoing
relationship with God.

We have originated many
of the core innovations
within American Judaism
and lead efforts to make
our community even more
forward-thinking, inclusive
and relevant.

community rooted in Jewish values. Geared toward adults, we
seek to enhance our Jewish identities through communal study,
worship services, holiday celebrations and social action. We
do not have a building or a Hebrew School, but instead meet at
various Center City locations, including members’ homes.
