Pardes Levavot

Pardes Levavot, “Orchard of Hearts,” was formed in the spirit of creating conscious holy community. Our name expresses the spiritual blossoming of each individual heart within an inspiring and nurturing orchard.

For information on our congregation please call (303) 530-4422 and leave a message or send email to info@pardeslevavot.org. To join our congregation, please print a copy of our membership form, fill it out, and send it to our Synagogue.


Pardes Levavot gratefully acknowledges Allied Jewish Federation of Colorado for their support of our Circle of Family Education program. Thank you!

Pardes Levavot currently has several focus groups that share the pleasure of making Pardes Levavot the best community possible. New hands, faces and ideas are welcome and very much needed to carry out the work of growing our community. These groups are not only a great way to contribute to your community, but also a way to grow in relationships as we work together to bring to fruition all the principles that this community is founded on. So get involved by contacting one of the following groups!

The Community Council is a regular meeting open to all members of Pardes Levavot where direction for the community is established. These meetings occur approximately once per month.
