Ahava Shalom Temple: By 1877, Summit Jews formed Reform congregation Ahava Shalom. Services were held on Friday nights and holidays mostly in English. A choir sang as while laymen conducted services. Ahava Shalom closed in 1910. Another congregation that attempted to form around 1906 was short-lived. See http://www.isjl.org/history/archive/ms/summit.htm [January 2009]
