Our congregation is dedicated to the principles of Tikkun Olam (repair of the world) and Tzedakah (charity).  We continually pursue justice in our local and global communities through our ongoing Mitzvah projects.  Additionally, our annual Mitzvah Day improves Lancaster City and County with over 180 congregants participating in numerous service projects.

Each of our B’nai Mitzvah students is encouraged to do a Mitzvah project as part of his/her training, learning that even at a young age, everyone can make a difference.
