An important message on behalf of  the 
Jewish Congregation of Maui 
​​​​​​​Board of Directors

Dear JCM Community,

We are looking to grow our membership to 100 families
​​​​​​​by mid April or we will begin the process of closing The Jewish Congregation of Maui forever. 

We hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits.  We are writing to you on behalf of The Jewish Congregation of Maui, a sacred space that has served as a pillar of strength, peace, and togetherness for so many of us. As we face an unprecedented challenge, we turn to the very heart of our past to determine if our house of worship continues to provide value to you. 

Our temple is facing financial hardship, and now, more than ever, we need your help to continue the work that has been passed down through generations. Whether it’s our worship services, educational programs, community events, or outreach efforts, the temple plays an essential role in nurturing the spirit of compassion, faith, and service to others. However, the cost of maintaining our temple and its programs is a constant challenge.

Becoming a member is not just about supporting us financially—it’s about becoming an integral part of a vibrant and compassionate community. When you join, you help ensure that our doors remain open for those seeking solace, connection, and inspiration. Your membership will enable us to:

*Maintain Our Sacred Space: Preserve the physical and spiritual sanctity of our temple for generations to come.

*Expand Our Programs: Support religious, educational, and cultural programs that nourish the minds and hearts of all who attend.

* Serve Our Community: Enable us to continue our outreach to those in need, providing support and fostering love and understanding. Being a member also offers you opportunities to engage more deeply in the life of the temple through volunteerism, leadership roles, and participation in events that bring us together as one family. 

Even if you don't live on Maui, your presence to join us for Shabbat service or holiday events, means the world to us. We're grateful that we can be your synagogue away from home.

Please consider becoming or renewing your membership through the high holidays of 2026 with an enrollment today. https://mauijews.shulcloud.com/join

Together, we can ensure that the temple continues to be a place of peace, unity, and spiritual growth for all who seek it. Thank you for your time, your love, and your commitment to our community.

Warmest regards,

The Jewish Congregation of Maui Board of Directors and members.
