HISTORY

In the year 2003, 35 families became the nucleus of a modern orthodox synagogue in Delray Beach. These families became the founders of the Delray Orthodox Synagogue by donating enough start-up funds in order to convert several stores in the Oriole Shopping Center into what is now a lovely and friendly Synagogue. Within 6 months, our membership was up to 73 family members plus single members as well and we were able to add our present social hall. Our first Shabbos in our Shul was held during Chanukah of 2003. The Delray Orthodox Synagogue was formally dedicated in Jan. 2004 with music and dancing with the Torah, which was lent to us by another orthodox synagogue. The ceremony was attended by members, friends, and other orthodox rabbis from neighboring communities. In the years following, members have donated Torahs to our Shul which were also celebrated with music and dancing.

Our small friendly congregation is like an extended family. We have educational programs throughout the season, as well as Sisterhood functions such as book reviews, informational speakers and entertaining meetings plus social events. Shabbos services always conclude with a Kiddush, where congregants can join in a social atmosphere.
We have both homes and condominiums in our area with varied price ranges, which are within walking distance of our Shul. There is excellent shopping and entertainment close by and we are near hospitals and we have Kosher restaurants within a 5 mile radius.

We have an extensive Kosher Eruv which surrounds the entire Delray Beach area.
