About our synagogue

EDOS is a member of the Orthodox Union Jewish Congregations of America.
EDOS was founded in 1962, and our membership is proud that our shul has been founded so many community organizations, including the East Side Denver Eruv, Tomchei Shabbos, Bikkur Cholim, Bnei Akiva of Denver, and the local day schools.
See our programs and classes pages for more details on EDOS and community programs.

Membership expectations

Membership is open to all Jews; Jewish status is determined according to Orthodox Jewish Law

Active participation in EDOS' volunteer opportunities makes our community thrive. Whether your niche is giving or attending learning programs, planning or executing social programs, setting up or putting away kiddush, or volunteering for shul committees and support work, you're sure to find a place at EDOS.

Although not required, regular attendance at the weekday Minyan by male members is strongly encouraged; members who are physically able should plan to attend a daily minyan at a minimum of once per week.

Semiannual meetings of the membership are conducted each January and July to approve budgets, and carry out synagogue business including setting semi-annual dues.

Members are also asked to participate in a one-time building fund pledge, payable over the course of 5 years.

Membership types

There are full-membership categories for singles and married couples, which include voting rights as well as family high holiday seating

For those who have another, primary synagogue, an economical Friends category supports a non-voting status of support.

Special arrangements are made for those who require some relief from the normal dues structure. Contact the Rabbi, President, or Membership Chair for discreet inquiries if required
