Baruch Habah – Welcome to the Naples Jewish Congregation of Naples, Florida, a proud Union of Reform Judaism member. We are known in Southwest Florida as the “small congregation with the ‘big heart’.”

Our Temple is 25 years old and has consistently had a tradition from its inception of striving to immerse its members in a family-like environment of warmth, support, spirituality, affirmation, and nurture. We are a community that try to be there for one another in times of joy and sorrow, difficulty, and celebration.

Our congregation has a most vibrant legacy of life-long learning courses, social justice activities, cultural activities, celebrations and greater community endeavors and service.

We are committed to interfaith activities, services, both creative and traditional, Torah study, and a variety of cultural explorations. You will find our community to be “heimisch” and at the same time a sanctuary for the soul. We promise you acceptance, joy, and a rich, vibrant, active Jewish environment that will enable you to feel like you have found a home.

Terms like "bar mitzvah," "bet mitzvah," and "bat mitzvah" typically evoke images of teens reading from the Torah and formally taking their place within the Jewish community. But many Reform congregations offer adult b'nei mitzvah classes, enabling people to participate in this ritual later in life.
