Review for Shir Chadash Conservative Congregation, Metairie, LA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Shir Chadash is an incredibly warm and welcoming community. After moving to the area, my family and I were welcomed with open arms. In addition to its warmth, the community has great programming including a fantastic religious school and wonderful adult education highlighted by an amazing and learned Rabbi. As if all of that wasn't enough, the synagogue is a well-run organization with fantastic professional staff. It is a pleasure being a member of such a wonderful community.

Review for J'Burgh, Pittsburgh, PA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have just moved to Pittsburgh and Jburgh has provided me a great new home. They offer a plethora of activities from Friday night minyans and dinners to Softball and Kickball teams. It has been a great way to meet people in a new city. Even more so, as a young married couple, my wife and I often feel excluded from traditional, organized Jewish social, cultural, and religious life. However, Jburgh provides meaningful programs and a wonderful outlet for young-Jewish adults.
