Emanu-El Everywhere

Wherever you are, you can be part of Temple Emanu-El.

Experience our community through a curated digital membership designed for life beyond New York City; in addition to our livestreamed services, Emanu-El Everywhere members will be invited to exclusive virtual programs, events, learning, and the ongoing life of our community.

Whether you’re a longtime member who has moved away, or someone seeking a meaningful Jewish connection from afar, this is a way to stay rooted in the Temple Emanu-El community.

Your support sustains our 180-year legacy and enables us to build a community that reaches far beyond the walls of our sanctuary.

Your tax-deductible household membership dues are $1,000 annually.*

*We believe that finances should never be a barrier to belonging. If you need reduced dues or special financial arrangements, please contact the Membership Office
