Welcome!

We are delighted that you have taken the time to learn more about the Farmington Valley Jewish Congregation-Emek Shalom.

Our temple was incorporated with the UAHC as a reform congregation in 1960. We began as twelve Jewish families coming together in a Simsbury home.

Today, our congregation includes almost 400 families. Nearly one-third of our congregation belongs to an interfaith family. We offer a variety of celebrations, education programs, and worship opportunities for our varied interests.

FVJC-Emek Shalom welcomes everyone interested in being part of our diverse congregation to join our community, no matter their marital status, religious history, or financial status.

Meet our Rabbi and Cantor, and read more about us.
