About Kehilas Shaarei Avodah

Kehilas Shaarei Avodah is a shul of young Bnei Torah, under the leadership of Rabbi Shmuel Iser שליט"א. We are dedicated to personal growth in our 'עבודת ה, our מידות, and לימוד התורה. Founded in the summer of 2021, we have Baruch Hashem seen tremendous growth.

 We aim to facilitate the continued spiritual development of ourselves and our families through a serious commitment to תפילה and לימוד התורה, combined with a warm sense of community. We hope to build a community where we can all gain from each other’s energies and contribute our own energies.  We hope to inspire our members to grow together, through strong communal and social bonds, under the leadership and guidance of our Rav.


We are currently located in the Katz Music Venue, in the basement of MMAE, at 7000 Rockland Hills Drive, Baltimore MD 21209. 

Entrance is located down the ramp from the left side of the parking lot. 


Shacharis starts at 8:45, with a half hour Seder during davening. For more information, see our weekly bulletin.

We look forward to welcoming you to our kehilla.
