Thornhill Woods Shul

To empower, educate and provide a warm home for the Jewish families of Thornhill Woods and Richmond H
(3)

Formerly called The Jewish Centre for Learning and Living (JCLL), the Thornhill Woods Shul is more than a synagogue – although we have prayer services 7 days a week, plus a growing and active membership. It's more than a Jewish social-service agency – albeit we have programs and resources to help Jewish families deal with many of life's challenges. It's more than your local "Y" - notwithstanding y

ou'll likely meet some very nice Jewish people here, singles seniors and families alike. So what exactly do the sum parts of the Thornhill Woods Shul add up to? They add up to an organization committed to developing an interpersonal, dynamic and meaningful Jewish community in Canada's fastest growing Jewish neighbourhood. A wide range of events, programs, learning and socializing, plus, a warm and un-intimidating shul and rabbi, a beginners and interactive High-Holiday service, in additon to classes in Judaism delivered in a contemporary and relatable way, have helped make this community so successful and so special. Enjoy our virtual community website, and please, by all means let us know how we can improve serving you better, whether here on our site, or on location in our emerging Thornhill Woods community. Our Mission
We REACH OUT to families ‘where they are’ and connect them to their spiritual and cultural inheritance

We PROVIDE individualized learning, social and experiential programs that transforms inexperience to competence, indifference to caring and estrangement to belonging. We INSPIRE pride and leadership, empowering people to make a positive contribution to the world. For more info, please message us or email [email protected].

NEW MEMBER ALERT!!!

Meet the Abelman family!

We live just North of Rutherford in the Valleys of Thornhill Woods for the last two years. Len was born in South Africa, lived in Israel and has been in Toronto since 2002. He is a partner at WZMH Architects. Jennifer Snider was born in Toronto and owns a chocolate company called SugarMommy Chocolates. We are the proud parents of Dory, who is studying Biophysics and working towards completing his doctorate at U of T; Tommy, who is working in the tech startup industry; Brandon, who is completing his BA at Carlton University; Jake, who is studying sound engineering at Metalworks Institute and Connor, who is studying to become a chef at George Brown. Dory and Tommy were born in Israel and are descendants of Rabbi Shlomo Elkabetz in Tzfat (who composed the famous Lecha Dodi prayer!) Brandon, Jake and Connor were born in Toronto. Lastly, we have a beautiful golden retriever named Benny (rescued from Turkey) who thinks he's Jewish as he likes to jump up and sit on a chair at the Shabbat dinner table. We love the warm and hospitable environment of the Shul community. Everyone has been very welcoming and friendly. It’s good to see all of my ex-South African friends as well!
