Find Your People at Anshe Amunim

TAA is a Reform congregation in Pittsfield where services and classes offer a blend of joy and meaning. Shabbat services provide a rich opportunity for reflection, community, inspiration, and learning. Our classes include interesting discussions, opportunities to learn something new, and to find friends.  The congregation is led by Rabbi Val Lieber. She is joined twice a month by Josh Cutler and Michael Duffy who lead inspiring, beautiful music. Services are highly inclusive and accessible.

We represent a wide variety of family structures, identities, and backgrounds -- lifelong believers, atheists and agnostics, new age meditators, cultural Jews, non-Jewish partners, singles, couples, families, LGBTQ+, straight; Ashkenazi, Sephardi, Jews of Color, white Jews, and “just Jews.”

The vibe is warm, non-judgmental and fun.
