Before Synagogue 3000, there was Synagogue 2000! S2K
was a 10-year, longitudinal study that worked with
over 100 synagogues spanning all the movements. It's
primary mission was the transformation of American
synagogues.
S2K implemented its mission through
the creation of cohorts, or groups, of synagogues which
embarked on 3-year journeys of transformation during
which teams of synagogue professionals and lay leaders
participated in:
- Conferences: at which teams
experienced innovative models of community, prayer,
study, music, dance, and sacred space.
- Curriculum: through which teams
grew in knowledge, and experimented with new models
of synagogue life by studying Jewish texts and
engaging in provocative discussions and exercises.
- Change Management: by which
teams worked toward their goals with the help of
team building, group dynamics, leadership training,
and other recognized organization development
processes.

While S3K no longer works with individual synagogues,
S2K lives on, in part through its curriculum. You'll
find a wealth of knowledge available in these
resources which we now make available to anyone at
no charge. The curriculum is divided into four
categories; Sacred Community, Limud, Prayer, and
Torah Study. Feel free to browse and download at
will. There's no specific starting point.
