Community is what makes Beth El special.

We celebrate each other’s joys, comfort one another in sorrow, and build close, long-lasting friendships both in the building and beyond these walls. From kiddushes to simchas, from havurahs and havdalah dinners in each other’s homes, to special occasions like Comedy Night and the Annual Gala, we love breaking bread (and matzoh!) together.

And since 1952 we have stood proudly as part of the larger community, with interfaith projects & events with other area synagogues, and active contributions to the Conservative movement.

Come get involved.
