Setting roots in San Jose

A home at the heart of the community — a place where people are welcomed, heard, supported, and uplifted.

Just five short years ago, we moved from Brooklyn, New York to help make Jewish life here in San Jose more vibrant, welcoming, and connected. What has unfolded since then has been truly extraordinary.

The community has grown in ways we could never have imagined, and alongside that growth, our own family has grown as well — deepening our sense of responsibility and commitment to this community.

The time has now come to truly set roots in San Jose: a home with a spacious dining area that can accommodate many guests, a generous outdoor space for gatherings and celebrations, and a dedicated kitchen designed to support meaningful community meals and programs.

This is more than a house. It is a foundation for Jewish life in San Jose.

Mazal tov — we’re home

With full hearts and deep gratitude to the Almighty, we’re overjoyed to share that we’ve received the keys to our home here in San Jose.

When we first arrived in this community as newcomers, we never imagined how quickly San Jose would become home. Because of all of you — the incredible kindness, friendship, and unwavering support — this journey has been filled with blessing every step of the way. A huge thank you to everyone whose generosity, encouragement and help made this a reality. We are forever grateful.

Our hope is that this home will always overflow with warmth, laughter, children playing, friends dropping by, and meaningful community gatherings — a true home of Torah study, prayer, and good deeds.

Our doors are always open to anyone who needs a place to come in, sit down, share a moment, celebrate, or simply feel at home.

With love and immense gratitude,
Rabbi Mendel & Mussi Weinfeld
