I&#8217;ve just moved here and would like to find a shul that is orthodox but tolerant, spirited, and not geriatric.  Does such a place exist on this side of the hill?  Does anyone do a Carlebach minyan, or have you heard of any independent minyanim?  It seems to me that there&#8217;s basically just Persian shuls in Tarzana, Conservative shuls in Encino, Chabad in Sherman Oaks, and Shaarei Tzedek in Valley Village.  I would be so grateful for any leads you could offer me.<\/p>\n<p>Luke says: I think that if you show up to Sharei Tzedek, you&#8217;ll find lots of different minyans there and info about other shuls\/minyanim outside of that synagogue. It&#8217;s probably the best place to go to get a feel for shuls in the Valley. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sara* emails: Mr. Ford, Since your website is so comprehensive and otherwise helpful in navigating Jewish LA, I thought I would take a chance and ask you if you know of anything interesting going on at any shul in the &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/?p=36739\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8372,209],"tags":[29887,823,27738,671,4514],"class_list":["post-36739","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-san-fernando-valley","category-synagogue","tag-chabad","tag-minyan","tag-shaarei-tzedek","tag-shul","tag-shuls"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36739","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=36739"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36739\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":36742,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36739\/revisions\/36742"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=36739"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=36739"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lukeford.net\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=36739"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
