Or Ami Village—it’s not a place. It’s a vibrant community created and led by Or Ami partners 55+ years and beyond that nourishes the mind, heart, and spirit.

Thanks, Gil Spiegel! Or Ami Village has become an integral part of Congregation Or Ami, sharing the same inclusive values of warmth, community and friendship. Since our inception in 2019, we have presented a variety of over 60 programs to our 55+ community. We continue to add more and more events and opportunities to gather.

Salaam/Shalom

Stranger/Sister is the fascinating story of two ordinary women, one Muslim and one Jewish, who dare to believe they can join hands to stop the wave of hate. They build a movement that turns strangers into sisters, challenging our assumptions about how to fight hate in the United States. The sisters build a powerful network of hope in a time of chaos and hate.
 
A member of Salaam/Shalom will be facilitating our discussion after we watch this powerful documentary together.
