Community
At Congregation Beth El, we strive to create a “kehillah kedoshah,” a sacred community in which all are welcome. One of the ways we hope to achieve this goal is through participation in our many synagogue auxiliaries, and social groups. We offer a Mahjong Club twice a month, gardening with the Seeds of Serenity group once a month, and our AOA group meets twice a month to discuss current events. There is a women's book club, our ROMEOs and JULIETs eat out monthly, and of course activities for our youngest members including Playdate Shabbat and Mishpacha and Me. We also offer many additional educational and cultural enrichment programs for our members to connect to their Judaism and to each other. We love hearing new ideas, particularly if a member wants to share with our community a special talent or passion – cooking, photography, art, or Jewish humor, just to name a few!
