Rooted in our history as San Francisco’s gay and lesbian synagogue, Sha’ar Zahav embraces all who participate in our community in a celebration of Jewish life. We find strength in diversity and create new Jewish traditions that honor our modern lives, both celebrating and questioning tradition. Our programs focus on creating authentic and transformative Jewish experiences that are relevant in our lives. We embrace a diversity of individuals of all sexualities, genders, races and abilities. We welcome a diversity of families, including single members, interfaith, single-parent, and multicultural families. We invite you to meet our members and leadership and to explore all that Sha’ar Zahav has to offer.
