Mission Statement
Temple Har Shalom is an inclusive Reform Jewish congregation in the beautiful mountains of Park City, Utah. We welcome all Ohavei Yisrael (lovers of Judaism) to explore, experience, and connect to Jewish thought and religion.
Our Story
Temple Har Shalom began in 1995, when a group of local Jews decided that Park City needed a home for the Jewish community. The congregation affiliated with the Reform Movement in 1999 and weekly Shabbat services began with the arrival of our first full-time rabbi in 2002. Our remarkable building was dedicated in 2008, housing the vibrant Jewish life of our Temple.
Open Judaism
Temple Har Shalom welcomes everyone who loves Judaism and incorporates it into their spiritual and communal life. No matter what your Jewish experience, THS provides a place to explore the next steps in your spiritual adventure. While we are a Reform Jewish community, our rabbi has a familiarity and comfort with traditional Judaism. We also welcome those who are not Jewish, whether they are a part of a Jewish family or exploring the role of Judaism in their life. People of all sexual and gender identities can choose our Temple as their spiritual community.
Spirituality, Learning and Community
Temple Har Shalom is a spiritual center, offering Pre K-10 religious school, family programs, adult study, Shabbat and holy day services, a Passover Seder, Tots programs, and social events for all ages. Our services are informal and guitar-led, emphasizing participation and including a talk by our rabbi almost every week. We are also proud of our role as a community center, hosting private and public events and concerts as well as non-member life-cycle events.
