Congregation Bet Ha'am

Our Hebrew name, "Bet Ha'am," means "House of the People," and we are proud to be a welcoming community for a diverse group of families and individuals. We have an open door policy for High Holidays, as well as for every other service, class, and event we offer. All are welcome to join us at any time. We have a fair share dues policy and ask our members to offer support according to their ability to pay. Our emphasis has always been to help our members connect - or re-connect - to Judaism through the unique spirit and warmth that mark our worship and other activities.
