Congregation Albert's membership is diverse. Some of us are single, some are married with young children, some are empty nesters, and some are retirees. We are many genders and orientations, many political affiliations, Sephardim, Ashkenazim, and Jews by choice. Some members were born into our community, but most come from all over the country or the world. We have an active Brotherhood, Sisterhood, choir, and many committees you can read about under the "Our Community" tab. Some people join our congregation for worship, some join for education and others join to make new friends or be with old friends. For most, there is a variety of reasons. We are a growing community, and there is a place for everyone.
