Delray Orthodox Synagogue, more commonly referred to as DOS, is a vibrant Modern
Orthodox Synagogue serving the spiritual and social needs of its members.
DOS provides daily minyanim, Torah learning, and interesting lectures by guest
speakers. The very active membership committee is always on the lookout for
new members and interesting ways to provide learning in an interactive environment.
DOS serves a wide community area surrounding the Oriole shopping center.
We hope you will come and join us for a Shabbos, a service, or one of our
weekly lectures.We are confident you will find DOS a delightful and warm
environment and one you will look forward to experiencing again and again.
In the year 2003, 35 families became the nucleus of a modern orthodox
synagogue in Delray Beach. These families became the founders of the
Delray Orthodox Synagogue by donating enough start-up funds in order to
convert several stores in the Oriole Shopping Center into what is now a lovely
and friendly Synagogue. Within 6 months, our membership was up to 73 family
members plus single members as well and we were able to add our present
social hall. Our first Shabbos in our Shul was held during Chanukah of 2003.
The Delray Orthodox Synagogue was formally dedicated in Jan. 2004 with music
and dancing with the Torah, which was lent to us by another orthodox synagogue.
The ceremony was attended by members, friends, and other orthodox rabbis
from neighboring communities. In the years following, members have donated Torahs
to our Shul which were also celebrated with music and dancing.
Our small friendly congregation is like an extended family.
We have educational programs throughout the season, as well as Sisterhood
functions such as book reviews, informational speakers and entertaining
meetings plus social events. Shabbos services always conclude with a Kiddush,
where congregants can join in a social atmosphere.
We have both homes and condominiums in our area with varied price ranges,
which are within walking distance of our Shul. There is excellent shopping and
entertainment close by and we are near hospitals and we have Kosher restaurants
within a 5 mile radius.
We have an extensive
Kosher Eruv which surrounds the entire Delray Beach area.
