We are delighted that you are considering Havurah Shalom as your community. Over 475 households in the Portland metro area have made Havurah their spiritual home.

Havurah does not have any specific criteria for membership. We allow anyone to join. We only ask that you have an honest interest in being part of our Jewish community. To discuss membership, please don't hesitate to email Brad Pector, our Communications and Membership Coordinator, at brad@havurahshalom.org. Brad would be happy to meet with you and answer any questions you may have!

Look over our new member form below, and if you've talked to Brad, you can fill out our online form, or print one and drop it off or mail it in. (Havurah Shalom, 825 NW 18th Avenue, Portland, OR 97209) Payment must also be set up via our dues commitment form or through our dues volunteer, Karen. Karen Westerman, long-time Havurah member and past-president, would be happy to discuss this with you. She has been a wonderful, compassionate, financial counselor for many years. Havurah offers great flexibility with regard to dues; we don't ever want finances to be an obstacle to membership, so we allow members to self-adjust dues.
