Imagine Yourself at Congregation Beth Israel

It's the feeling you get when you know you belong...the friendly greeting from a stranger...the caring embrace of a friend. The comfort of knowing...this is your community, your spiritual home.

Imagine yourself at Congregation Beth Israel, a Reform congregation steeped in history and clothed in tradition. For more than a century, Congregation Beth Israel has been serving the Jewish community as a house of worship, a center for Jewish learning and a home for personal and religious growth.

The largest Reform congregation in the area, Beth Israel is a warm and welcoming home to generations of families who play a vital and integral part in synagogue life. Accommodating to all types of modern Jewish families, Beth Israel welcomes members wherever they may be found on their personal Jewish journey.

The Anniversary Celebration Weekend - October 24-26, 2008

Sisterhood Needs Your Help!
We are helping to honor Rabbi Weis on his 20th year at Congregation Beth Israel by sponsoring the Oneg Shabbat on Friday, October 24, 2008. We need bakers and people to help set up so that we can make this event as special as possible for our Rabbi. This is also a great opportunity for our teens to earn Mitzvah credit. For details and to sign up please contact Janet Rich (926-1345) or Nancy Mitnick (926-5294).
