About the Business
Welcome to Congregation Am HaYam, a vibrant and inclusive place of worship located at 4839 Market Street, Ventura, California. As the sole Conservative synagogue nestled between Thousand Oaks and San Luis Obispo, we proudly embrace our identity as "Am HaYam," or "People of the Sea." Our community is a tapestry woven from diverse Jewish experiences, united by our shared heritage and traditions.
At Congregation Am HaYam, we believe in the power of community, friendship, and faith. We are more than just a synagogue; we are a family embarking on a spiritual journey together. Our doors are open to all who seek a welcoming and nurturing environment to explore and deepen their Jewish faith.
Our congregation is enriched by engaging events and initiatives, such as the "Apples & Honey" fundraiser, which celebrates the significance of these symbols in welcoming our holidays. We invite everyone to participate and contribute to these meaningful projects.
For those who missed the heartfelt "L’chi Lach: His Journey Continues" luncheon honoring Rabbi Sacks for his 12 years of dedicated service, a recording of the moving presentation is available on YouTube. We also encourage you to explore the "Rabbi’s Words" section on our homepage, where you can find his inspiring essay, "Not ‘Goodbye’ but ‘Be Seeing You.’"
Join us at Congregation Am HaYam as we navigate the spiritual seas together, sharing in the blessings of community and the healing touch of friendship and faith. Whether you are a long-time member or a newcomer, we welcome you to be part of our journey and our family.
Reviews
"Very warm and welcoming to strangers."
"There is not a more welcoming, warm, educational and experiential Jewish home in California! Congregation Am Ha Yam is filled with wise and wonderful people that have created a love for Judaism and Jewish learning. I always feel at home here and admire that throughout the dark days of covid they have had educational and fun filled programming 5 days of the week (sometimes more!)"
"Congregation Am HaYam is exceptionally warm and welcoming. Rabbi J.B. Sacks is an exceptional scholar and educator. Their Rabbinic intern, Maayan Lev is a delightful young man with a bright future. I have attended services via Zoom throughout the pandemic and I had the delightful opportunity to join the congregation in person for one of their USCJ grant programs. If I lived in Ventura, CAH would be my spiritual home."
"Am HaYam is an amazing synagogue! The congregants are all very kind and welcoming, and Rabbi Sacks is both knowledgeable and engaging! The services are very heartfelt, and the synagogue also puts on great events all week long via Zoom, so there is always something to do for those who want it. It's a place where everyone will know your name, and quickly. It really feels like home. Joining CAH has been one of my best decisions in a long time!"
"Congregation is warm and welcoming. Rabbi Sacks demeanor and service is easy to follow and his explanations give so much more meaning to the service than others I've been to."
