My first time visiting here with her. She also have friends and family that live out here and attend this synogogue weekly. We live far away from here, but we will try and visit once a month like many other here in Los Angeles. Rabbi Yossi Cunin is a very nice wonderful man. The congregation are relatively friendly and inviting like all of the other synogogues I have attended in Los Angeles. Be nice and respectful, and you will get the same treatment.

His family have been members of the community for a number of years. We were married at CTJ and now our daughter will be one of the first students at the new Shalem Preschool opening at CTJ this summer. Rabbi Josh Kalev and the Temple staff create an uplifting environment that celebrates the Jewish faith and encompasses each and every person of the community. The atmosphere is positive and heartwarming. If you are looking for a synagogue in the South Bay, look no further.

I went here today for the first time and am so glad I stayed for the classes. This place is…read morewonderful and Rabbi Czapnick is a true gem. He is incredibly learned and super warm hearted and caring. I am so glad this place is exists! All classes are free- available in person and on Zoom. It felt better than a one hour meditation class. Although the class was ostensibly on the week's Torah portion, it was more about long and short term life lessons. I truly believe that if more people learned the pearls of wisdom of the Torah, the world would be a happier and more peaceful place. Hopefully, that day will soon come.

As far as I know, the average person praying there is just fine. The problem is the Rabbi himself,…read morewho has done all he can to destroy any possible connections I have had and might still have had with the local religious Jewish community. Sometimes he has resorted to tactics that are both bizarre and pathetic, just to reach this goal of his. I am not sure what his problem is in this regard, why he feels the need to put me down in the eyes f others like he has repeatedly done, although I suspect he does not like it when people ask him questions about the religion that are too challenging, or that question the absolute authority that he feels entitled to have, although that does not explain how he used to regularly embarrass the former shul President (who is now deceased) in front of the entire congregation. He also womanizes without shame, openly flirting with pretty women, even the married ones, in front of the entire congregation. There are people who see right through his fraudulent self, although only a few of them shared that with me. It is no accident that countless people no longer have anything to do with that house of worship

The shul is modern inside and singing is highlighted. You get to do a real Havdalah usually with guitar and tarbuca accompaniment while being in a circle signing arm in arm. Men with men. Women with women. How long has it been since you sang in a circle facing other Jews?! Its such a lovely experience. The Happy Minyan is a very welcoming and uplifting shul where Jewish people of all backgrounds and observance levels are welcomed. ​ What stands out to me is the sense of , down to earth people, people who love Torah and share their excitement, the learning classes are good, the davening is led well by eloquent chazanim, and they have a really nice seudah shilshit or 3rd meal where everyone sits together and chats and David Sacks gives a great shiur.​
