Tours
We are happy to show our Temple. We have 10-minute drop-in tours if a staff member is available, but this cannot be guaranteed. If no staff member is available, we invite you to call us to arrange for a brief tour or to accompany a larger group on an already scheduled tour.
Bikkur Cholim – Visiting the Sick
Congregation Emanu-El’s clergy rely on our members to inform us when a congregant is ill or in need of a visit. Please know that hospitals do not inform us when congregants are admitted. If you know of a member who would appreciate a call or visit from our clergy or chaplain, please call Ariana Estoque, Director of Member Experience at (415) 750-7552 or write to [email protected]. The Bay Area Jewish Healing Center is available to help those who are unaffiliated.
Reaching the Temple When Phones Are Not Working
In the event our phone lines go down: If you have an emergency regarding a death in the family or a life-threatening illness, please call 925.232.2100 to reach a member of the clergy.
