Congregation Ahavath Torah

Congregation Ahavath Torah is a vibrant and diverse modern orthodox synagogue, located in a pristine suburban setting only minutes from New York City. Having planted its roots in the community more than a century ago by only a few Jewish families, we have grown into a thriving congregation of over 700 families. As a community, we are devoted to the Torah, as well as to the land and people of Israel. As individuals, our membership is as varied as it is large, spanning a broad spectrum of Judaic background, current Jewish knowledge, philosophical outlook and political positions. On shabbat the Synagogue hosts several minyanim, each catering to different styles, tastes and personal preferences. These multiple, parallel minyanim insure that all can find a meaningful place for prayer, yet still become involved and engaged as active members of a single synagogue. For many, our shul serves as the central focus of spiritual and social communal life, as well as the source of lifelong friends and companions. Despite the recent and rapid growth within the community, we are committed to preserving this congenial and hospitable atmosphere, and strive to remain a warm personal home for all Jews.
