Congregation Sherith Israel is a century-old Orthodox synagogue with a rich history. We welcome every Jewish soul to our community, regardless of background, level of observance or knowledge, age, or socio-economic circumstances.

We are a microcosm of Jewish America. Our members include:

• those who are Shomer Shabbat and those who are not
• those who can read Torah or teach a class and those just learning to read the Hebrew alphabet
• first generation Americans from Europe, Russia, Iran, Morocco, and Israel and those with roots in Nashville for many generations
• young families as well as seniors and every age group in between
