On June 4th, 2021, we celebrated the merger of University Synagogue and Wilshire Boulevard Temple in a special Shehechiyanu Shabbat. Join your Rabbis and Cantors as they recite their own special version of Sheva Brachot, The Seven Blessings, to unite our congregations as one and symbolize our commitment to the future.

We mark a major milestone in the history and future of Wilshire Boulevard Temple and University Synagogue with the closing of our merger agreement on April 2, 2021, to become one congregation. We look forward to growing together as one congregation with the best of all that has distinguished University Synagogue and Wilshire Boulevard Temple for generations.
Great before, even better together, this historic union creates a more vibrant, powerful, and creative Jewish future in Los Angeles. The merger will result in a congregation of more than 2,700 families, combining the warm and dedicated University Synagogue and Wilshire Boulevard Temple communities, each with a long proud history and a deep commitment to Reform Judaism and tikkun olam.
Kadimah!
