Shalom and welcome!

Thank you for making your way to my favorite website. We are delighted that you are interested in Congregation Mishkan Tefila and want to know more about us. We welcome new members and we are pleased to have this opportunity to introduce our spiritual, educational, and social programs to you.

CMT prides itself on the variety of programs and opportunities we provide for study, worship, and social action. We are continuously searching for ways in which to engage our congregants to find meaning in Judaism.  Our synagogue is a place where we can find comfort in times of personal difficulties and find joy in the celebration of happy events.  We create positive memories for our children and teenagers that they will seek to replicate in their adult years. 

We invite you to join us for services either at our daily morning and evening minyan or at Shabbat services to experience the warmth and spirituality of our community.

You are welcome to attend any of our programs and activities. We have learning opportunities for all ages, community-service activities throughout the year, and some events that are just for fun. You can find these listed in the Calendar.

The following is just a sample of the many ways in which your life may be enriched through connection in our synagogue life:

• Join us in prayer at our minyanim, Shabbat and High Holy Day Services
• Participate in Sisterhood, Brotherhood, PTO and Hazak
• See your children make friends and have fun in varied youth programs
• Watch your toddlers learn and grow in our warm, welcoming Nursery School
• Enroll your children in our dynamic Religious School
• Visit our expansive library with children’s and adult holdings, school programs and monthly adult book club
• View a world-class collection of Judaica in our Museum
• Attend stimulating adult education classes and lectures
• Play softball on our league-leading Brotherhood softball team
• Strengthen your connection to Israel through our Israel Affairs programs and relationship with AIPAC
• Celebrate a family simcha, aufruf, baby naming and bar or bat mitzvah
• Be a Mitzvah Maker through our monthly Social Action programs
• Share lifecycle events with a caring congregation
• Develop new friendships and become a part of the Mishkan Tefila family

Please continue to surf our website to learn more about CMT and to find programs and services you would like to attend. I also invite you to come meet with me to learn more and to go for a tour of our spacious campus-like setting. Please feel free to call us at 617-332-7770 to arrange your visit.

I look forward to meeting you and welcoming you into the Mishkan Tefila community.

Cordially,

Charles R. Diamond, President
