Welcome to Temple Emanu-El

Temple Emanu-El is a Reform Jewish synagogue, affiliated with the Union for Reform Judaism. It is located at 6299 Capri Drive, in the neighborhood of Del Cerro, in the city of San Diego, California. We strive to build in our congregation a community and a family for our membership. We hope your connection with our temple will be meaningful and rewarding for you and your family.

Temple Emanu-El is...

  • An environment where the spiritual needs of the congregants are met through worship in accordance with the Jewish tradition.
  • A religious education for children & adults that cultivates a love and understanding of Jewish faith & heritage.
  • A facility that stimulates fellowship in the Jewish community and strengthens the bonds of loyalty with Jewish people everywhere.

Please join us for a guided meditation Friday evening, July 10th and July 24th at 5:15 pm-5:45 pm in the Library prior to our regular Shabbat Service. Meditation helps you relax the body, calm the mind and let go of stress and anxiety from your busy week. Meditation practices have been deeply rooted in Judaism for thousands of years and will help you find a deeper connection within yourself.

This practice will be led by Jeffrey Zlotnik, Executive Director of The Meditation Initiative. This gentle guided meditation will be a perfect way to end the week and begin Shabbat.

Fridays, July 10th and July 31st, 6:00 p.m.
Welcome Shabbat and enjoy worshipping in our bright Jerusalem stone Courtyard! Bring a picnic dinner to eat at tables in the Courtyard before the services.
