A Different Kind of Reform Jewish Community

Kadima Photo College rendered

Warm. Thoughtful. Progressive. Personal.


At Kadima, you're not one of hundreds of families. You're part of a community where people know one another, ideas are welcomed, and Judaism is a resource for living a thoughtful, meaningful life. We see religion as being about people. Come see us for a Shabbat Dinner and Service or visit our class, “Jewish Ethics for Personal Spiritual Transformation.” Drop a line at office@nrck.org, or call us at 847-229-9500 or use our contact form /contact/new

On the Road with Kadima! 

Our Congregation will be visiting Beth Shalom B’nai Zaken Ethiopian Hebrew Congregation on November 14th, 2026. 

Beth Shalom B’nai Zaken EHC is the oldest temple in the Chicago area serving the Black Israelite community.   This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with fellow Jews whose experiences and traditions may be different than our own. Their mission, like Kadima’s, is to foster a vibrant Jewish community through worship, education, and social responsibility. It’s our chance to listen and learn from one another and celebrate our shared Judaism. 

Beth Shalom B’nai Zaken EHC is located at 6601 S Kedzie Ave in Chicago. The Shabbat Service begins at 10:30 am. 

Meet at Kadima at 8:45 am to caravan/carpool together or meet at Beth Shalom by 10:30 am.
