KAJ of Paramus (KAJP) was founded in 1978 by a few families
that moved from New York City and a few residents already living in Paramus.
The nursery school began as a branch of Yeshiva Rabbi Samson Raphael Hirsch
and is now independently run as the Congregation KAJ of Paramus Preschool
Program.
KAJP has daily morning & evening minyanim and a variety
of weekly shiurim on a regular basis. Some of our members learn b'Chavrusa
in the shul in the evenings. Our members participate in tzedakah campaigns
throughout the year. Over the years we have hosted individuals in need of
accommodations nearby to hospitals and temporary work locations. Our members
supported the construction of the Paramus Eruv by our sister synagogue in
Paramus (Congregation Beth Tefillah) and several of our members actively check
the Eruv weekly. A new GREEN light has been installed in front of the building
for easy drive-by notification that the Eruv is acceptable for Shabbos & Yom Tov.
The Mikvah of Paramus was completed for Pesach 5765 (April 2005).
Please call 201-967-9894 for an appointment.
Paramus is a lovely suburban community. We are located in the
heart of Bergen County with low taxes, easy commute to NYC and access to shopping
& community services superior to neighboring towns. If you are interested
in relocating, we can direct you to real estate agents that have been particularly
helpful to our newest residents. Contact us if you'd like to come out for
a day or if you'd like to spend a Shabbos.

at all times and appreciates your feedback.
