After several challenges, a west Cobb area synagogue and religious school is finally moving in to its first permanent location, just east of the Kennesaw Mountain Visitor Center, close to its former Marietta and Acworth locations, convenient to Interstate 75. Formed in May 2006, Reform Jewish Congregation Ner Tamid is a caring congregation, welcoming all families. The Congregation in the past held services and gatherings in different locations, including Christ Lutheran Church on West Sandtown Road and religious school at Mountain View Prep in Acworth, but having its own facility allows members to have a place to call home The Congregation is a member of the Union for Reform Judaism (URJ). Its weekly Religious School, which begins August 17, 2014 offers classes for PreK-Grade12, including Hebrew in the upper grades B’nai Mitzvah and Confirmation, has recently adopted the curriculum of the Institute of Southern Jewish Life curriculum. .
