Lest We Forget

25 ways to help Israel

 

Welcome to our shul
We'd like to extend a special "Welcome!" to students who have recently come here to attend the University of Windsor.  Please feel free to join us for Friday night and Saturday minyans during your stay in Windsor.  We offer traditional orthodox worship, and a cozy environment where everyone knows everyone else.  Also, we have now posted the High Holiday schedule on this website.

Congregation Shaarey Zedek, Windsor's oldest Orthodox synagogue, has been in three different locations since its inception.  Since 1958, it has been located at the corner of Lillian and Giles Blvd.

To learn more about our history, please see our History page. If you have a broadband connection and would like to hear a welcome message from our rabbi, please click here or on the rabbi's photograph located at the left of the screen.

News

We have been very fortunate to achieve a minyan for nearly every Friday night, Saturday morning, Saturday evening, and yom tov service. Still, we welcome those new to Windsor, or those disenchanted by the offerings in other shuls to come try us out. We think you'll enjoy the feeling you get from returning to traditional orthodox worship. And there's nothing that beats the comraderie of a small group of like-minded people.

Charitable projects supported by local synagogues

One of the members of our Jewish community, Betzalel Folk, has spearheaded a local drive to collect donations for a worthy cause in Israel. Although Betzalel is not a member of our congregation, he joins our minyan when his shul cannot muster one of their own. A separate page of this website has been devoted to his charitable efforts. Please do what you can to support the underprivileged school children.

Tell us what you think of our website

Shaarey Zedek's website has been in operation since early 2006.  Since then, we have attracted visitors from all over the world, seeking information about candle lighting times, Misheberach requests, and even information about our own shul.  It is certainly gratifying that we can provide such a service to the Windsor community and the world Jewish community at large.  Your comments are welcome, and if you'd like to contribute material to the site, please click on either link above to send us an email.
