PSJC Membership
We wish to encourage people to join our community and experience all that we have to offer. We strive to be open and inclusive as guided by our mission statement:
To sustain a Jewish community dedicated to cherishing and renewing our tradition through religious growth, prayer, good works, and a commitment to take care of one another.
The PSJC By-Laws list the following membership requirements:
1. There must be (at least) one Jewish family member in any membership unit; only adult members who are Jewish are able to vote or serve on the Board.
2. All members are required to sign the Egalitarian statement on the membership form.
Additional Membership Requirements:
Our policy is that children can only become a bar/bat/brit mitzvah at PSJC with the appropriate learning, as determined by the Rabbi. In common with the Conservative movement, we expect each child to have attended religious school (in our Hebrew School or in a program acceptable to the Rabbi) for 5 years. Ordinarily, we expect the family to have maintained membership in our congregation for a minimum of 2 years.
Members may not purchase a burial plot or grave unless they have been members in good standing of the congregation for at least two years.
If you wish to request an exception to these policies, please speak with the Rabbi.
This application, together with the annual membership dues, constitutes my/our application for membership. I/we understand that one of the stated objectives of Park Slope Jewish Center's By-Laws is the affirmation, promotion, and furtherance of full and equal participation of all genders in all aspects of Jewish ritual life, known as the Conservate/Egalitarian form of worship.
Is there anything else you would like to share? Please feel free to include anything else you would like us to know about you/your family. We look forward to getting to know you better as members of our community!
Thank you. Please reach out to the PSJC office with any questions.
