Jewish Congregation of Marco Island
from Connections 2021
by jewishnaples
The Jewish Congregation of Marco Island is the spiritual home to just under 200 families of diverse backgrounds, welcoming both permanent and part-time congregants to its open-door policy.
In 1982, a classified advertisement in a local newspaper attracted a nucleus of 60 enthusiastic and dedicated people who evolved into today’s active volunteers, offering and participating in a wide variety of stimulating educational, cultural and social activities. Although primarily an adult community, the Jewish Congregation of Marco Island has the staff and flexibility to offer children’s programs and tutoring as required. The current professional staff includes Rabbi Mark William Gross and Cantorial Soloist Hari Jacobsen, as well as a president and board of directors.
Livestream services are offered yearround every Friday evening at 7:30 p.m. and, during the months of January through April, at 10:30 a.m. Saturday Torah Study begins at 9:30 a.m. via Zoom from September to April. Please contact the synagogue or visit its website for timely information on virtual services and reopening of its doors.
We look forward to welcoming those who wish to worship with us. Located at 991 Winterberry Drive, Marco Island, the temple can be easily accessed by crossing the Judge S.S. Jolley Bridge and continuing south on Collier Boulevard to Winterberry Drive (opposite the Hilton Hotel). Turn left, go two blocks and the synagogue is on the right.
