Hi

My family and I are planning a relocation and were wondering about any info regarding the Orthodox Jewish Community in OKC. We live in Israel now, orginally from the US and are planning a move back. Any info you could provide would be really appreciated.

Thanks
TexYid

The Orthodox community is rather small in OKC. There is the Chabad Community Center on the far north side of the city.

Chabad Community Center For Jewish Life and Learning in Oklahoma

There is a good-sized Masorti/Conservative congregation, but mostly Reform here. The Jewish community in general is exceedingly small in OKC. Well, small throughout the state to be honest. There were remnants of an Orthodox community in Tulsa, but I don't know if even that is still around. Probably Chabad would be your best bet for an Orthodox shul.

There used to be a Jewish day school in OKC, but it has since closed (terrible situation where the rabbi in charge was molesting the students).

There's a Hillel House if you head down to Norman, but they don't lean Orthodox.
