The architectural concept of the new campus is based on the Mishkan, the portable shrine that Jews carried in the desert. The Mishkan was in the center of the Israelite camp and surrounded by the tribes of Israel. This concept reflects what Sinai members are: a close-knit and caring community.
Congregation Sinai's new home includes a spacious sanctuary, brand new state-of-the-art Religious school and Nursery school, Social hall with kosher kitchen, a separate Chapel/library as well as new administrative offices. In total, the new campus provides the congregation with over 25,000 square feet of new space, more than doubling the size of the previous facilities, all designed expressly to meet the needs of a thriving and growing modern Jewish community. Throughout the design process, the goal was to maintain Sinai's "haymish" and "family" atmosphere.

Congregation Sinai is here today because of the efforts of individuals and families who dreamed and created a close knit congregation that honors Jewish tradition. Their hard work and generosity ensured that a special congregation is alive today. Now it is time to guarantee its success as we enter the next 50 years of Congregation Sinai in our proud new home.
