Services Information

At Beth El we believe that worship as a community is a central piece of what it means to be a synagogue. Through a variety of prayer opportunities at different times and in varying settings, we seek to create a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere for individuals and families to truly appreciate their connection to G-d and our community.

Whether in a more traditional service setting like the Daily Minyan or a family Friday night service, the goals of worship at Beth El are always the same, to elevate the spiritual lives of the participants, and for participants to leave feeling more connected to the community and to G-d.

All of our services are fully egalitarian and use Sim Shalom siddurs.
