With a warm, friendly and relaxed atmosphere, Young Israel is a true small-town shul. 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.
Rabbi Dr. Meir Sendor is the spiritual leader of the Young Israel of Sharon, MA. He is a recognized scholar in the field of Jewish History, specifically the history of Jewish mysticism, philosophy and medicine. He holds a rabbinic ordination from Yeshiva University, a Ph.D. with Distinction from Harvard University and a Master’s from Yale University. Rabbi Sendor lectures widely on his specialties, as well as on Jewish law and serves as an instructor in the Me'ah Program.
Our shul has a number of daily minyanim and several Shabbat minyanim: Hashkama, Main and Tefillat Nashim; a monthly women’s prayer group. Sharon also has an Eruv which was constructed and maintained in close consultation with its original Rav HaMakhshir, Rav Shimon Eider, Ztz"l. The Sharon Mikveh is a few blocks from our shul, in the former Young Israel building, and is run by the women of Chevrat Nashim.
YI Sharon offers a variety of adult, youth, and family educational and programming activities. The adult education programs cater to the diverse backgrounds of our Kehillah. For our teens and youngsters, YI has a youth director to help facilitate the spiritual growth of our children.
