Orthodox Judaism is vibrant in Glendale, Wisconsin, and we encourage everyone looking for a pleasant Midwestern lifestyle in a warm spiritual environment to consider this friendly community. Dr Laurence and Marlene Marton live in Madison, which is a 90 minute drive from Milwaukee. They are frequent visitors to our shul. The onslaught of invitations for meals and overnight stays was beyond belief. The membership of the Anshe Sfard Kehillat Torah is eclectic, and all seem to fit in well.
Involvement is encouraged, while individual preferences are respected.
We were immediately involved in synagogue activities at a level normally reserved for long term members and supporters. After finishing our respective schooling, we were looking for a Jewish community in the Midwest. We researched and visited many and discovered the ASKT community to be ideal. During our first Shabbos visit, shul members went out of their way to make us feel welcome. We had several invitations for meals and an entire schedule of classes and Shabbos afternoon activities.
