The Mission of Adas Israel Congregation is:
- to create a vibrant religious community through enriching Jewish study, joyous celebration, and binding connection to God and Torah
- to strengthen the sense of Jewish Peoplehood through active support of Jewish life in the United States, pluralistic Judaism in Israel, and engaged concern for Jews around the world;
- to help assure the Jewish future by actively reaching out to families and individuals in our own community and by connecting the generations of our congregation in an atmosphere of living Jewish values through the practice of tzedakah and tikkun olam.

To help us fulfill our mission, serve our members, educate our children, and involve ourselves in the community, we appreciate and rely upon the financial commitment of our members.
