Or Hadash began as a congregation in 1991 when local families decided there was a need for more than a Hebrew School in the community. On November 7, 1993 Or Hadash opened its doors and shortly afterwards the synagogue became a member of the Union for Reform Judaism(URJ).
As our membership continued to grow, we offered services in several different locations until we were able to secure our very own space on Leslie Street. 10 years later we were on the move again to accommodate our growing congregation. In July 2010, we secured our present location at 451 Botsford Street in downtown historic Newmarket.
On September 5th, 2010 the Dedication of our new synagogue was held led by Rabbi Dow Marmur and Cantor Benjamin Maissner. Click hereto view pictures from this joyous ceremony.
