Adath Shalom, which means “Assembly of Peace,” was founded in 1989 and is part of the worldwide Conservative movement. Every Shabbat we hold egalitarian services at the heart of Paris. We also have a very dynamic Talmud Torah, and a wide range of classes for adults. Teachings are given in an open and plural spirit. Our founder, Rabbi Rivon Krygier, has been recently joined by Rabbi Joshua Weiner, a native English speaker. You’ll find on this page some of his teachings in English, to give you a taste of our style: a mix of French intellectual rigour and deep Jewish spirituality.
If you would like to join us for a celebration or if you have any questions, please contact us here, we’d be happy to hear from you!
