CONGREGATION KEHILATH JESHURUN, under the leadership of Rabbi Haskel Lookstein, is a home for the Jewish community of the Upper East Side, providing opportunities for social connections, spiritual growth, and Jewish learning. For over 130 years, our doors have been open to all to come and experience the best that Judaism has to offer.

The KJ Beginners Program has been offering services, lectures, events, and a friendly, open environment to explore Judaism to all Jews regardless of their level of religious observance. We invite you to join our family.
