Welcome to the Brotherhood
at the Falmouth Jewish Congregation,
Falmouth, MA
Strengthening the bonds within our community
For more than two decades, men at the Falmouth Jewish Congregation have built a dynamic and spirited community. Brotherhood provides many opportunities to become involved in the life of the Falmouth Jewish Congregation, to develop warm and lasting friendships, and to contribute to the wider community.
Our History
- A very active Brotherhood has developed over the years within the Falmouth Jewish Congregation (FJC), although no official men’s group was organized when the congregation began. As the group has evolved and made contributions to Jewish life in Falmouth, the Brotherhood has provided an opportunity to forge bonds among members of our community.
- After years of operating in a less formal capacity, the FJC Brotherhood joined the national organization, The Men of Reform Juadaism in 2011. The following year, the Brotherhood was given a seat on the FJC Board of Directors.
The Falmouth Jewish Congregation
The Falmouth Jewish Congregation is the spiritual and social center of Jewish life on the Upper Cape. It provides for religious observance, Jewish education to all, and meets the needs of significant personal and familial life events. From our historic Meetinghouse to our social hall and on to our children’s school wing, this is a vital active home of Judaism. The Falmouth Jewish Congregation is the public expression of Jewish life in our own Cape Cod home towns. We are stronger and more fulfilled individuals when we join as a community. Membership matters. Every Jewish Brotherhood member is encouraged to become a member of the Falmouth Jewish Congregation. To learn more about the FJC, click here. |
Our National Organization
Hinei Matov... ‘How good it is’ when brothers may gather... In this spirit, on January 23, 1923, sixty-five Reform Jewish brotherhoods came together to form The North American Federation of Temple Brotherhoods (NFTB). Nearly 85 years later, the national organization's mission is “To serve Jewish men, Reform Judaism, and its local congregations" and officially changed its name to Men of Reform Judaism (MRJ). (Edited from the MRJ Website). To learn more about the MRJ, click here. |
