Hear From Someone

Who Has Been Where You Are

Ann Johnson found House of El at one of the lowest points of her life. What she found was not a list of rules — it was a community that sat with her in her pain and walked her toward purpose.

Finding House of El has been a blessing for our entire family.

When my father passed away, the congregation wrapped our family in love and support. From the funeral arrangements to the shiva visits and beyond, we felt truly cared for. House of El lives out its values every single day, and I am grateful to be part of this amazing community
