The Reform Temple of Forest Hills

Welcome to The Reform Temple of Forest Hills, where warmth, inclusivity, and modern tradition come together—a place to celebrate, grow, learn, and connect.

We’re a vibrant and inclusive spiritual community committed to embracing diversity, repairing the world, and continuously exploring our faith. We welcome you to RTFH, whether you’re seeking spiritual fulfillment, discovering your Jewish identity, or passing down traditions to the next generation.

Our congregation draws strength from the power of community, from which our Temple family finds support, inspiration, and a sense of purpose. Join us on a meaningful journey of spirituality, learning, and connection as we celebrate our shared Jewish values.

Kol Nidre Donation

Kol Nidre appeal is a traditional call to worship, synonymous with tzedakah (giving charity).  Temple dues do not cover all costs, especially programs and activities.  RTFH’s budget continues to depend on this High Holy Day appeal.  We appreciate any amount that you can afford to give.
