Welcome to Congregation Ohr Torah
Congregation Ohr Torah is a vibrant and diverse Orthodox synagogue located in the northwest section of West Orange, New Jersey. Our shul, established in 1992, continues to develop as its membership increases. The constant influx of Jewish families also supports local kosher restaurants, day schools, eruvim, mikvaot, and Judaica shops. The warm and welcoming atmosphere of Ohr Torah ensures that congregants of all ages feel at home.
We invite you to come for a Shabbat and experience our friendly and heimishe atmosphere.

West Orange's Adopted Hostage - Evyatar David
The community of West Orange has adopted Evyatar David and his family as part of the MirYam Institute’s Adopt-a-Hostage Campaign. Hailing from Kfar Saba, 23-yr-old Evyatar's passion for music, adventurous spirit, and warm personality have endeared him to all who know him. However, Evyatar's vibrant life was tragically interrupted by his harrowing kidnapping from the Nova Music Festival on October 7, leaving his friends and family heartbroken and yearning for his safe return.
Our goal is to support Evyatar's family in any way we can, and to raise awareness locally and globally in order to help bring Evyatar home.
