President's Message
On behalf of United Orthodox Synagogues, welcome to our community!
United Orthodox Synagogues is an OU affiliated synagogue that is located inside the 610 Loop of Houston. Our community is in a nice, quiet neighborhood in the Jewish corridor close to the Medical Center, the Galleria and Downtown Houston.
Our congregation was formed almost 50 years ago when Adath Emeth, Adath Israel and Beth Jacob merged into UOS. The oldest of those was founded over 100 years ago. Although we are one of the largest orthodox congregations in the southwestern United States, we maintain a sense of family and community.
Our Shul is large enough to offer amenities one might expect only from a very large synagogue including the following:
-
Mikvah on site
-
Social Hall
-
Fully Stocked Library/Beit Midrash
-
Active Youth Programming – Preschool to High school
-
Shabbat Morning and Shabbat afternoon youth groups
-
Youth program - offering local events as well as out of town trips
-
Adult Education
-
Large Area within the Eruv
We pride ourselves on our warmth and members of our Shul feel as if they are part of a large family.
I have been a member of UOSH for many years and I am proud that every Jew feels comfortable within our doors; no matter what their level of observance and knowledge.
Whether you are visiting Houston or considering a move to our city, we welcome you to contact our office and plan a tour of our facility or set up Shabbat Hospitality in our community.
We look forward to hearing from you soon,
Robert Levy, President
