Aloha and Welcome to Congregation Sof Ma'arav

Established in 1971, we have committed ourselves to create a supportive and caring havurah in Hawaii's community and a spiritual oasis for our visitors from around the world. Visitors are always welcome.

We are an egalitarian, participatory, lay-led havurah. We depend on each other to make Congregation Sof Ma'arav a sanctuary for those interested in awakening their Jewish heritage through education and spirituality.

Shabbat and festival services are held at the First Unitarian Church of Honolulu, 2500 Pali Highway. On Saturdays, Torah study begins at 9 a.m., and Shabbat services are held from 10 a.m. until about noon. An oneg (lunch) and social hour follow services. Babysitting is always available during services. Havdalah, special events, and programs are sometimes held at the homes of members.
