About Adas Israel of Hamilton
The Adas Israel of Hamilton is dedicated to fostering an embracing, non-judgmental, atmosphere that inspires authentic Jewish growth and a strong sense of community. What defines the Adas is not a single Torah outlook, or lifestyle, but rather a warm and welcoming spirit.
The word “Adas” (or Adat) is defined as “a community united by a common calling” (R’ Hirsch). Families would be hard-pressed to find a more vibrant environment that is both diverse and unified.
Walking through the Shul, one will experience a thriving congregation with children and university students, young families and seniors, all growing together as an organic Jewish community.
