From Our Congregants  

"Temple Shalom has been a second home for us for the past twelve years. The Temple is welcoming, and the Rabbis and Cantor make the services not only meaningful, but also enjoyable; even my kids like to go!" - Erica and Matthew, New Canaan, CT

"All of our kids are musically inclined so we initially came to Temple Shalom for the music.  We have stayed because the Temple offers a beautiful way to appreciate Judaism at its roots." - David and Erika, Westport, CT
