Jewish Congregation of Marco Island

The Jewish Congregation of Marco Island (JCMI) is the spiritual home to many families of diverse backgrounds, welcoming both permanent and part-time congregants with an open-door policy.

In 1982, a classified advertisement in a local newspaper attracted a nucleus of 60 enthusiastic and dedicated people, evolving into today’s active volunteers who offer and participate in a wide variety of stimulating educational, cultural and social activities. Although primarily an adult community, the Jewish Congregation of Marco Island has the staff and flexibility to offer children’s programs and tutoring as required. The current professional staff includes Rabbi Mark William Gross and Cantorial Soloist Hari Jacobsen, a president and board of directors.

In-house and live-stream services are offered year-round every Friday evening at 7:30 p.m. September through April, Saturday Torah Study begins at 9:30 a.m. and is also available via Zoom for those who wish to join remotely.

Our temple doors are always open to greet those who wish to worship with us. Located at 991 Winterberry Drive, Marco Island, the temple can be easily accessed by crossing the Judge S.S. Jolley Bridge and continuing south on Collier Boulevard to Winterberry Drive (opposite the Hilton Hotel). Turn left, go two blocks and the synagogue is on the right. Rabbi Mark Gross
