The opening as it read in 2025
The House of Love and Prayer was a Hasidic Jewish congregation and synagogue , located at 347 Arguello Boulevard, in the Richmond district of San Francisco , California , in the United States. Founded in spring/April 1968 by rebbe Shlomo Carlebach , the congregation had a short existence, lasting just ten years. Despite its Hasidic origins, the rituals of worship were inspired by the American counterculture movement , and attracted young, non-affiliated Jews. The congregation eventually disbanded, and some of the congregants relocated to Israel, founding Moshav Mevo Modi'im in 1975.
