Step into history, as you enter the last of Philadelphia's great "Broad Street" synagogues, now more than 70 years old. If you listen, you can still hear the echos of our forebearer's voices in happiness, sadness, and in prayer. |

Step into history, as you enter one of the oldest Reform Jewish congregations in America. If you listen, you can still hear the echos of the immigrant founders singing praises of thanksgiving for the new land of freedom they entered. |

Step into history, as you walk the same path as thousands of Confirmands on Shavuot as they confirm themselves with more than 5000 years of Jewish history, tradition, and faith. If you listen, you can still hear the echos of those happy and serious young adults as they confirm their lives as Jews standing beside their Rabbis, their teachers. |

Step into history, as you walk the same path as thousands of Brides and Grooms to the chuppa where they will join their life paths into one path. Step into history, as you walk the same path as thousands of Jews who harken to hear the stirring sound of the Shofar, as they greet the new year and affirm their faith. If you listen, you can still hear the echos of all of us, the immigrnats, our parents, grandparents, and their parents, the old remembering, the young just beginning, the Rabbis teaching, comforting, and cheering, all of us, stepping through the years of Jewish history, tradition, faith, and of life. |
