Congregation Ohav Shalom

Beautiful synagogue with a vibrant congregation

I grew up in this shul. And while I've been away for many years, I've touched base off and on, and watched it grow. I'd be a part of this amazing community if I lived in the Albany area. Great rabbis, great lay leadership, committed regulars. Every town should have a place like this.

Amazing I would recommend this temple for anyone needing to find inner peace.

A welcoming, warm and inclusive Conservative congregation that appeals to all: singles, couples, families and seniors. The two rabbis are beloved by the congregants and are actively involved in pastoral care, education and traditional prayer services. The congregation is actively involved in social action, volunteering at multiple social action activities. Congregants and their families have been members for decades, attesting to its great appeal.

Teachers at the preschool are wonderful and the director is outstanding!
