FROM OUR PRESIDENT
Dear AIEA Family,
In this time of uncertainty of the spread of the coronavirus, the board of Agudath Israel Etz Ahayem has decided err on the side of caution and will cancel all services: Monday and Thursday minyans as well as Friday night and Saturday morning Shabbat services through the end of March. We will reevaluate for April as we get closer. We will advise you of other cancellations and when we will resume services and programs.
Shalom,
Rick Richburg, President, Board of Directors

A Spiritual Union of
Ashkenazi and Sephardi Traditions
Agudath Israel Etz Ahayem Synagogue embodies the union of a spiritual and organizational merger in 2001 between two congregations, each rich in their own histories and heritage; Agudath Israel, a conservative synagogue, established in 1902, and Etz Ahayem, a Sephardic congregation established in 1912. We are uniquely suited to welcome Jews of both Ashkenazic and Sephardic backgrounds, as well as people from other traditions.
RABBI SCOTT KRAMER
Born in Baltimore, Maryland, Rabbi Scott Kramer was raised in a liberal Orthodox Jewish home. In 2007, he became the rabbi of Agudath Israel Etz Ahayem.
SISTERHOOD
The Agudath Israel Etz Ahayem Sisterhood enhances the synagogue through a variety of events, contributions, projects and community mitzvah projects.
SUNDAY SCHOOL
The Rabbi Elliot L. Stevens Kol Ami Religious School's mission is to strengthen our children’s faith in God, their love of Torah and their identification with the Jewish people.
