San Francisco, Italy
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 t
en 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.
