Our Community
Front of Young Israel of Sharon synagogue buildingSharon is a beautiful suburban community with a wealth of natural resources and, yet, is just a short train ride from Boston and Providence.

The Young Israel is a vibrant shul with a warm, friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Our ideology is inclusiveness.

On any given day in the shul, you can see many men, women and children, from a wide variety of backgrounds, with a broad array of religious styles and approaches, all unified by a commitment to authentic Torah life and spirit. Young Israel exemplifies the ideals of Modern Orthodoxy: serious Torah study and practice, with an embrace of diversity; and a participatory openness to the best of contemporary culture and community.
