About Us

Founded in 1924, Congregation Kol Israel is the oldest continuously practicing Orthodox community in Brooklyn. From Chasidic to Modern Orthodox to just plain curious, we are proud to count people from a wide variety of religious and cultural backgrounds as members. We are lucky to be situated in the diverse area where we are able to create a community where each person can find a home.

Guided by Torah and Halakha, Kol Israel is committed to building a community that allows its members to build strong relationships with each other and with God.  We aim to build a sacred space nurtured in Torah, prayer, and acts of loving kindness that fosters both personal and spiritual growth.

Having been small for a long time, we are now up to 75 member units and growing.

Come and join us for services any time. We welcome newcomers - whatever background you're coming from, you'll find a warm and open atmosphere at Kol Israel.
