We are Coastside Jewish Community, providing an inclusive community that supports connection to Jewish life, both cultural and spiritual, on the coast from Pacifica to Pescadero.
From the very beginning, Coastside Jewish Community has always been a welcoming spiritual home for people of all cultural backgrounds, religions (many of our member families are interfaith), sexual orientations and identities. Genuine diversity and inclusion are at the heart of our values as a community.
While we do not have a building of our own, we have been blessed by friendships with several churches and community organizations who allow us to rent their facilities and make us feel welcome.
Based on the San Mateo County Coastside, we are brought together by our choice of location. While there are many Jewish congregations available ‘over the hill’, CJC provides a Jewish community for people who prefer life a bit away from the hubbub. A love of music, social justice, LGBTQ inclusion, and community provides bonds of friendship.
