A Little Bit About Us
Kehillat Ma’arav (KM ) is a Conservative congregation serving Santa Monica, the Westside and beyond. KM is a caring, involved community that provides the religious, spiritual, educational, and social needs of our diverse membership. With our ages ranging from birth to 94, we truly embody the meaning of l’dor va dor, “from generation to generation.” We are the only Conservative Synagogue in Santa Monica, yet the 39 zip codes in which our members live span far beyond Santa Monica’s borders.
