About Us

Tifereth Israel has anchored the Jewish presence in the District of Columbia for over 100 years. As a Conservative congregation, we are committed to Jewish law and to engagement with the wider world. We cherish Torah, service and deeds of kindness.

At TI, we are:

• Children, teens, younger and older adults
• Diverse in our expression of Judaism and cultural background
• Single, partnered, married, and intermarried
• People with and currently without disabilities
• Lesbian, gay, bisexual, heterosexual, transgender and others

We believe in:

• Enriching our lives through prayer, study and celebration
• Educating children and adults so we all can experience the gifts of Judaism
• Taking inspiration from Jewish law and history to work for justice and protect the environment
• Treating all genders equally in ritual and communal life
• Removing economic and accessibility barriers to participation and recognition
• Building connections between religious communities

Every member of Tifereth Israel makes our communal life richer, whether at services or religious school, on volunteer duty, or in the small and not-so-small everyday interactions that allow us to honor the divine image in every person.
