We envision Temple Beit Torah supporting each member on their journey of personal and spiritual growth, by providing a home for Reform Jewish values and creating sustained connections to the greater communityIf this sounds like a place where you and your family can live your Jewish life to the fullest, consider joining TBT!
 
Why should I join Temple Beit Torah, aka TBT?

1. Community – Temple Beit Torah is the place to find others like yourself, and to feel part of a welcoming, inclusive, energetic, and vibrant Jewish community. We are active and collaborative with many local agencies and organizations to help improve the lives of those around us, living the principle of Tikkun Olam.

2. Connection – Building connections with others who share similar backgrounds or are exploring their understanding of Judaism is a vital role of any synagogue. Temple Beit Torah fosters these connections through weekly services, social and family dinners, special events, and opportunities to serve on committees that sustain our congregation.

3. Education – We believe that education is a cornerstone of our congregation. Our religious school, affectionately known as 'Chaverim,' offers children Jewish and Hebrew education. Adults also have opportunities to learn through classes, lectures, workshops, and participation in our various services and programs.

4. Spiritual Expression – Our sanctuary and our Gan Or (Garden) provide an environment for spiritual and religious contemplation and prayer. We strive to create a space for those seeking to worship, learn and serve the community. Services at Temple Beit Torah are an interactive learning experience; our goal is to broaden everyone’s understanding of Judaism.
