We’re a community that feels like family, in a place that feels like home.”
Beth El Fairfield/B’nai Torah Collaboration Mission Statement:
As Conservative synagogues, it is our goal to provide all congregants with vibrant and engaging opportunities for Jewish observance, learning, celebration, and social action. Seeking to strengthen Conservative Judaism in our community, Congregations Beth El Fairfield and B’nai Torah are collaborating and exploring partnerships in various aspects of congregational life and learning to assess the potential of what we can accomplish together to enhance our congregants’ and communities’ synagogue lives.
Our mission is to be the center of Jewish spirituality for all in the Fairfield area:
- To serve as a vessel for prayer, Jewish ritual, and tradition.
- To sustain our loving Jewish community, serving its spiritual and social needs.
- To educate our youth and adults, and to instill a sense of belonging.
