On June 4th, 2021, we celebrated the merger of University Synagogue and Wilshire Boulevard Temple in a special Shehechiyanu Shabbat. Join your Rabbis and Cantors as they recite their own special version of Sheva Brachot, The Seven Blessings, to unite our congregations as one and symbolize our commitment to the future.


We mark a major milestone in the history and future of Wilshire Boulevard Temple and University Synagogue with the closing of our merger agreement on April 2, 2021, to become one congregation. We look forward to growing together as one congregation with the best of all that has distinguished University Synagogue and Wilshire Boulevard Temple for generations.


Great before, even better together, this historic union creates a more vibrant, powerful, and creative Jewish future in Los Angeles. The merger will result in a congregation of more than 2,700 families, combining the warm and dedicated University Synagogue and Wilshire Boulevard Temple communities, each with a long proud history and a deep commitment to Reform Judaism and tikkun olam.

4worldlovers: Our community creates a lasting imprint on your heart, spirit, and mind through music that resonates, wisdom that inspires, and community initiatives sparked by the many different voices in our congregation.

We aspire to be a Mezuzah on the many doors that open to a more meaningful Jewish life. We encourage you to explore your own Jewish path within the embrace of our nurturing, inclusive, intergenerational community.

Joining Temple Emanuel has been one of the best things I have done for my family. I could've never imagined in my wildest dreams the degree and the multitude of ways that joining this temple has enriched our lives. We are a secular family and when we joined the temple my kids had very little jewish education. They never felt like an outsider, and in fact, the staff, educators, directors and rabbis made sure that they felt safe, welcome, and appreciated in every possible way.


We are so proud of Mia! Her ability to lead the service, read Hebrew, deliver her speech and compose herself so maturely was very impressive!


She couldn’t have done this without everyone’s help at Temple Emanuel!

Without Hebrew Club at Temple Emanuel, Phillip would not have been ready for his special day. When Phillip remembers becoming a Bar Mitzvah, he will remember much more than his party.

Our friends and family are still raving about the fantastic, warm, spiritual and lively service TEBH puts on!

As members of Temple Emanuel for more than forty years we, our children and grandchildren, always feel a very special comfort level in the services.


We came to your services and absolutely loved them! Your temple was so warm and welcoming, we felt a community so far from home.


Temple Emanuel is a living, breathing, physical tabernacle that brings me to my community and my community to me, all in the presence of God.

Each of our families have been active members of the Temple Emanuel community for over 50 years. It has been our spiritual home for four generations. The clergy have been integral to all of our lives from Rabbis Zeldin, Shapiro, Heller, Geller, Aaron, and Bassin to Cantors Krawll, Cohn, Kliger, and Weiss.

Temple Emanuel is my comfort zone. It’s my safe place. It gives me that emotional lift that is needed at times.

Temple Emanuel has provided our family a warm and inviting home. it is the place we come to pray, play softball, lose at poker, and learn at religious school.
