Our Philosophy
Reform
. . . Conservative . . . Orthodox . .
Especially
Now . . .Labels
are for clothes, not Jews!
Aren't
you tired of being labeled? Aren't
you tired of squabbling among all the different movements?
Particularly in this time of tragedy and challenge, we as a people simply
cannot have this.
We
at the Flame Alternative Service have a solution.
You see, we aren't orthodox, conservative or reform, we're just Jews.
And
we think that religious services should be about you - about your feelings,
your thoughts, about being a better person and dealing with the tragedies and
joyous events that we can share. You
know, the real Jewish issues.
Maybe
you'd like to join us at one of our Sabbath or High Holiday services. Our Rosh
Hashona and Yom Kippor services can't be beat--they're free! The services are so special that The New York Times, the Gannett papers
and the Jewish Week ran stories on us. Every
prayer is explained. We stop for
questions. We combine the best of
tradition with some dashes of modernity. We
even have special separate programs for kids and free babysitting.
All
those who help run our services are Jews like you, who hold down regular jobs
(although maybe too many of them are lawyers).
We understand your problems because we are out there living in your
world.
We
also have year-round lectures and classes and can, if you like, provide one to one
study partners for you or your kids anywhere in the country by phone or
in person. All free.
But
one thing... We'll hang up your
coat but we won't check your label.
