 A Welcome Message from our President

Randy Weisman


Thank you for visiting our website. Congregation Shomrei Torah is one of the most welcoming synagogues in the Phoenix area and we would be delighted to have you as a member. In addition to High Holiday services, we have weekly shabbat services at the Valley of the Sun Jewish Community Center, inviting all congregants to actively participate to the best of their ability. While some may be more comfortable with an English reading, we also have availability to try your hand at being Gabbai or reading Haftorah and Torah with the assistance of the Hazzan if needed. Shomrei Torah offers the chance to grow as a Jew and become a part what we feel is “the friendliest congregation in the Valley.”

Regards, Randy

      Shabbat Shirah - A Shabbat of Songs

Shomrei Torah celebrated Parshat Beshalach with song and food. Hazzan Savitz sang some wonderful songs including Leonard Cohen works and an Yiddush song he composed about family.  It was followed by a music themed kiddush.

"Miriam, the prophetess, Aaron's sister, took a timbrel in her hand, and all the women came out after her with timbrels and with dances. And Miriam called out to them, Sing to the Lord..."

Exodus 15, 20 &21

About Our Congregation

Our name, Shomrei Torah, means "Guardians of the Torah".  We accomplish this as a caring traditional egalitarian synagogue where each member is valued. As Guardians, we carry the Torah forward at our weekly Shabbat Service where we daven, learn and celebrate joyously under the leadership of Hazzan Bernard Savitz.  Come visit us and you will see that we are a Small Shul that feels like a Large Family.


If you are a snow-bird from the colder parts, or recently moved to the Phoenix area, you are always welcome at Shomrei Torah to continue your Jewish connection in your travels or relocation.  


Being a smaller congregation, we provide the unique opportunity to offer interactive services where we check in with each other and celebrate Kiddush which our members have made or bring a fruit or sweet.  Come participate and you will join us in being a Guardian of the Torah in celebrating Shabbat or the Haggim.
