In complying with Governor Pritzker’s “Shelter in Place” order, we have closed the doors to our physical building. However, Congregation Etz Chaim remains your spiritual home. We will remain a strong community, with just different 'walls'. We will still gather virtually for educational, social, spiritual and religious programs. Our clergy and staff are committed to helping you remain connected and cared for during this time.

We have worked hard to transition our religious services, religious school, Jewish learning and social offerings to an online format. Until further notice, all programming will remain virtual. More information about programming can be found below on our homepage and calendar. We will be sending out a daily email to all of our members announcing the next day’s offerings.

Our clergy and staff are working remotely, but we remain fully accessible via phone and email, text and can be reached during office hours via chat in the lower right corner of the homepage.

What makes our community so special is our connection and commitment to one another. We continue to be concerned for your spiritual, emotional, and physical well-being. If you or a family member experience any hardship, please reach out to us as your family, the Etz Chaim community, is here for you.
