Welcome to the New Reform Congregation Kadima, a warm, inclusive, caring community committed to Reform Judaism from a progressive perspective. At Kadima, religion is about aspiring to be the best human beings we can be. Our name, which means "forward," expresses our progressive approach to Judaism and to how we function as a congregation. We are distinguished by our creative, contemporary liturgy, vibrant, child-friendly religious school, and extensive involvement in community service. We welcome intermarried families. Congregation Kadima is more than a local synagogue. Because of our unique ideology and distinctive character, we draw from a wide geographic radius beyond Deerfield including Chicago, The Northwest Suburbs and the North Shore.
