The Northshore Jewish Congregation is a new congregation on the North Shore of Lake Pontchartrain, about 30 miles from downtown New Orleans. Affiliated with the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, NJC is a family-oriented congregation that grew out of a chavurah in order to bring Judaism closer to our homes and hearts.

We extend a warm welcome to all who are seeking a Jewish community that is built on the age old foundations of Jewish tradition as expounded by Rabban Simeon ben Gamliel, who said that the world sustains itself by three things:truth, justice and peace. It is these three concepts that inform our traditional values of God, Torah and Israel.

If you need a place to call your spiritual home, look no further, we surely have a place here for you. Please feel free to contact us for further information regarding our weekly Friday evening and Saturday morning Shabbat services, our religious school or our adult education department. There is a lot going on here at NJC and we hope that you will join us. Call 985-778-7899 for more information.

To keep informed about the greater New Orleans Jewish community as it rebuilds after Katrina please email Sherri Tarr and ask her to add you to the list.
