Our Mission

At Shaar Shalom Synagogue, our purpose is clear: to uphold and promote the teachings and values of Christianity, with a special emphasis on the traditions of the Mennonite, Brethren, and Hutterite communities. Grounded in faith and driven by compassion, our organization serves as a beacon of hope and love not only within the city of Lethbridge, Alberta but also in broader contexts.

Embracing Diversity, Fostering Unity

We believe in the inherent dignity and worth of every individual, irrespective of their background or beliefs. Our mission is to create an inclusive and welcoming environment where people from diverse backgrounds can come together in fellowship and mutual respect. By embracing diversity and fostering unity, we strive to build bridges of understanding and compassion within our community.

Nurturing Spiritual Growth

Central to our mission is the nurturing of spiritual growth and development among individuals. Through various avenues such as worship services, Bible studies, and educational programs, we provide individuals with the necessary tools and resources to deepen their relationship with God and live out their faith authentically. We are committed to equipping believers to serve others with humility, generosity, and love.

Extending a Helping Hand

As followers of Christ, we are called to extend a helping hand to those in need. At Shaar Shalom Synagogue, we take this calling seriously by reaching out to those facing hardships and offering practical assistance and support. Whether it’s through food drives, community outreach initiatives, or partnerships with local organizations, we are dedicated to making a tangible difference in the lives of individuals and families in need.

Promoting Peace and Justice

In a world characterized by division and injustice, we advocate for peace and justice. We believe in the transformative power of reconciliation and healing, and we are committed to addressing social injustices and working towards a more equitable and compassionate society. By standing in solidarity with the marginalized and oppressed, we seek to embody the values of mercy, righteousness, and humility exemplified by Jesus Christ.

Building a Legacy of Faith

Our mission extends beyond the present moment as we aim to build a lasting legacy of faith for future generations. Through our commitment to discipleship and mentorship, we empower young people to become passionate and faithful followers of Christ, equipped to continue the work of love and service in their communities and beyond.
