When Temple Beth El was founded in 1946, its members dedicated themselves to the creation of a home for living Judaism- a place where newcomers feel welcome, where Jewish ideals are made real and where education is the key which unlocks the door to a lifetime of Jewish fulfillment and commitment. We are proud of this tradition and hope that your association with us will be spiritually and emotionally satisfying.
Temple Beth El is committed to caring for all of its members and strives to provide a meaningful Jewish experience for people of all ages. The following pages will describe many of the programs and services offered as benefits of membership.
