Do synagogues
serve singles?
Frequently being single can
mean being left out — or
(sometimes inadvertantly) kept
out. Not intentionally made to
feel unwelcome, but just not
thought of.
For example, synagogues
periodically have special func
tions organized around a theme:
father and son or mother and
daughter outings, young couples
clubs, special events for the
elderly. But how many syn
agogues make real efforts to in
terest and serve the unmarried
members of the community?
Having spoken to people who
represent various synagogues
around town, I was told
repeatedly “Our congregation
has successfully integrated the
unmarried members, so we do
not need to have special singles’
programs.”
Are they copping out on us? Is
the problem that temple-
sponsored singles groups is the
only kind of special program ap
propriate for a synagogue? And
does a special singles-only group
tend to isolate the unmarried
adults in the congregation? Or is
it true that there is no problem?
At present, I have no
proposals in mind in answer to
these questions. It seems to me
that there must be additional,
creatively different ways of
making the unmarried Jew feel,
as well as be, welcome.
Let’s have your opinions on
this subject. I would especially
like to hear from congregational
leaders to find out what they are
doing for our segment of the
population.
