Welcome

building-our-home

Congregation Kol Ami is the cornerstone of living, learning, and celebrating Jewish life in Southwest Washington. We take our mission of serving the Jewish needs of our entire community very seriously. We hope you will explore our web site and come visit us in person at the Learning Center in Salmon Creek.

Our congregation offers social and educational programs for all ages from infants to adults and our strong community values and volunteering spirit infuses everything we do.

This is an exciting time for us, as the recent addition of new staff and many new families has brought big ideas and more energy into our community. Our religious and Hebrew schools are growing and we are planning for our future as we prepare to build a new Synagogue building.

We hope you will consider making our congregation your spiritual home.
