About The Temple
The Temple is located in midtown Atlanta and is one of American Judaism’s most historic religious institutions. Founded in 1867, it is the city’s oldest and most diverse synagogue.
Breman Education Center
The main goal of our education program is to help our students form a positive Jewish identity that will grow and remain strong throughout the years. This identity will enable students to interact in the modern world as Jews, proud of their Jewish heritage.
Lifecycles
The Temple is an extended family, and like any family, we are excited to be part of the major milestones in our members lives. At every stage of life, from its beginning to its end, the clergy are available to assist. What do you do? What kinds of ceremonies are available to mark these occasions? What is the Jewish method of addressing these life cycle events? We are here to help you . . .
Worship
The central purpose of any synagogue is the development of Jewish spirituality. The Temple believes we best serve God through a pluralistic approach to worship, allowing for the personal experience of prayer to coexist alongside a welcoming spiritual environment for the entire community.
Social Justice
The Temple is a premiere social action congregation in Atlanta as well as a model for the Reform Movement. We achieve this distinction through our wide array of mitzvah opportunities, educational programs, and community involvement, led by a partnership of professional and lay leaders and an engaged membership.
Community
Our engagement team strives to connect every member of the Temple to the community. They're the ones that make The Temple feel like home to anyone who walks in the door!

MarMarch 14 , 2021The Fifth Question: Bringing our lived Experiences to our Passover Seder. A Conversation hosted by Temple Mosaic. Zoom.
Sunday, Mar 14th 7:00p to 8:00p
While Passover is a Jewish holiday rooted in the Torah, we naturally add the layers of our diverse identities and experiences to our celebrations. We ask lots of questions and also try to make the holiday relevant to our lives and world this year. Members of Temple Mosaic, the group focused on DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) in our community, will share their personal stories and approaches to Passover, and then we'll have the opportunity for small group conversations and reflections to develop our own "Fifth Question" to bring to our sederim this year. To RSVP, please go to www.the-temple.org/passover.
