Our Roots Run Deep

Greater MetroWest NJ has a long tradition of being a dynamic Jewish community, tracing back to the late 1800s when Jewish immigrants settled in the city of Newark.

Since then, we have expanded, moving west and south, building synagogues, schools, community centers, and camps. Starting businesses. Raising families and making friends.

And, of course, Federation has been there over that time, serving as the hub that connects us all.

Tap into that community, your community, and and enhance your life with Jewish experiences that are meaningful to you.

In this week’s Bit of Torah about Parshat Vayakhel, Rabbi Edwards of Temple B’nai Abraham in Livingston teaches us that Shabbat is a moment to temper the fires of history and to find peace in the quiet. #JewishLearning #Torah #IamGMW
