     Har Zion Congregation aspires to be a source of inspiration to those who congregate within its walls. At the foot of Mt. Sinai, long ago, individuals became a holy congregation. From that moment on, they were bound together by bonds of common commitments and shared values. Har Zion is a creative source and spiritual center for a caring, concerned community. We invite you to join us. 

    Har Zion Congregation is a Conservative synagogue affiliated with The United Synagogue of America.


New Year, New Initiatives
By Rabbi Mark J. Bisman, Spiritual Leader, from The Voice, January 2010
     2010! Only three and a half months ago we began 5770 as the New Year on the Jewish calendar. At the end of January we celebrate the Jewish New Year for trees, known as T”U B’Shevat [15th day of the Hebrew month of Shevat]. As Americans and Jews we are fortunate to have so many new-year markers. Marking the end of a period of time and starting a new period of time creates an opportunity for reflection as well as celebration. Click Here to Read the Entire Article
