Young Israel of San Diego

Welcome to the closest shul to Jerusalem in Southern California.

Nestled at the foothills of San Diego's highest peak, our Orthodox synagogue is a warm, inclusive community dedicated to Torah, prayer, study, and acts of loving-kindness (chessed).

We embrace the exchange of ideas, honor tradition and history, and engage deeply with the world around us. Whether you’re a lifelong member or visiting for the first time, you’ll find a welcoming home here.

"The world is based on three things: the Torah, the service of God, and acts of loving-kindness."
— Shimon HaTzadik, Pirkei Avot 1:2

Join us and be part of a vibrant community where timeless values meet modern connection.

Help us build

As we build our shul here in San Carlos, serving the Eastern San Diego community, we deeply appreciate any contributions that help us create a space for Jews of all ages and backgrounds to gather, study, pray, and celebrate our heritage, guided by a deep commitment to Torah and tradition. 

...with clarity

We believe in transparency and accountability. Every community member has the right to know exactly where their dollars go. Our members will receive a financial statement and report at our annual members’ meeting.
