Stephen Wise Free Synagogue is a religious institution in the United States with more than a century of history as a progressive Jewish congregation. It emphasizes inclusive worship, social action, and a willingness to blend innovation with tradition, while valuing diversity and critical engagement with sacred texts. The congregation seeks to be a central, welcoming address for a warm and joyful community of members and families. Its emphasis on thoughtful Jewish life positions it within a broader Reform and progressive Jewish landscape. One notable recent development is the 2023 launch of the Amplify Israel Fellowship, which aims to connect future Reform leaders to Israel. The organization is based in the United States and operates with a mid-sized staff to support its programs and community activities.
