Congregation Etz Chaim is affiliated with the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America.
History of Etz Chaim
In December 1993, a group of nineteen Sharonite families gathered together and decided to form Congregation Etz Chaim. Shortly thereafter, Etz Chaim found a temporary home on the second floor of 14 Pond Street, in the center of Sharon. In 1995, we joined the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America
As the congregation grew, it was recognized that we needed to hire a Rabbi. In 1996 Rabbi Nisson Dov Miller, a graduate of Ner Israel Rabbinical College, assumed the position of spiritual leader of the congregation. A Daf Yomi shiur taught by Rabbi Miller in which a folio of Talmud is read each day began in 1997 and continues to this day.
