In the next few weeks Congregation Emanu El’s historic facade will be covered with scaffolds, and shortly after the restoration work will begin!


Stay tuned for updates and schedule changes, and if you haven’t yet - buy your Bubbe a brick!

Congregation Emanu-El acknowledges that we are located on the traditional Coast Salish territory of the lək̓ʷəŋən (Lekwungen) peoples, known today as the Songhees and Esquimalt Nations. We recognize our responsibility to care for these lands as First Nations have done for millennia. In accordance with the Jewish precept of teshuvah, or sacred reconciliation, we seek to repair the harms we settlers have done to the Indigenous peoples of these lands.

As Rabbi Nachman taught: “If you believe you can damage, believe you can repair.”​
