Welcome to Temple Or Hadash

Greetings, and thank you for visiting our site. Temple Or Hadash is a vibrant Jewish congregation serving Northern Colorado and Southern Wyoming. We are proud to be the only congregation in Northern Colorado affiliated with the Union for Reform Judaism. In addition to a strong commitment to our Jewish heritage, we are a congregation that is active, progressive and welcoming, always with an eye toward service to the greater community (tikkun olam).

Diversity and inclusiveness are part of Or Hadash’s DNA. Interfaith families form a large part of our congregation and non-Jewish spouses and partners play key roles in many aspects of the congregation’s life. Whether you are gay, straight, religious, or not-so-religious, you will find a warm welcome at Temple Or Hadash.

Parents will find our religious education program is lively, fun, and infused with a passion to make the next generation aware of their Jewish heritage.

We’d like to extend a personal invitation to you to join us for any of our events. And be sure to subscribe to our newsletter so we can keep you posted about goings-on at Or Hadash. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to call us at 970-407-7896 or send us an email.

Thanks again for visiting our site. We look forward to meeting you at a future temple event.

Shalom.

Eli Alberts, President

Creating High Holiday Memories for Children

Creating High Holiday Memories for Children sdolgov

Finding ways to make the High Holidays meaningful for your child is an important way to nurture their Jewish identity. There are many ways to celebrate at home, like reading books, making crafts, or discussing what the holiday means to you and them.

Jewish Pride + Jewish Community = Strong Jewish Future

Jewish Pride + Jewish Community = Strong Jewish Future jemerman

In North America, our community has been dealing with rising levels of antisemitism and fears about being attacked for the crime of being Jewish. It was against this backdrop that I arrived in the safe haven that is URJ's Crane Lake Camp.

Why is Jewish Summer Camp Important?

Jewish summer camps provide children the opportunity to immerse themselves in Jewish culture, engage in ritual and education, challenge themselves physically and spiritually, and prepare to be leaders in and out of the Jewish community.

Hope and Pride in Be’er Sheva

During Pride Month, I participated in a leaders' trip to Israel through A Wider Bridge, an organization dedicated to connecting LGBTQ+ people in North America and Israel. Around Israel, pride events this year focused on calls to free the hostages, support the hundreds of thousands of displaced people, and reach a meaningful ceasefire.
