Welcome to Beth Chaverim : Our House of Friends!
We are building a House of Friends, one family at a time, by creating a welcoming Jewish home for a diverse community.
Bet
h Chaverim means "house of friends” in Hebrew, and that is what you will find here. We are a welcoming community, connecting with each other and centuries of Jewish tradition. We celebrate our diversity. We are young families and empty nesters, teens and seniors, interfaith and same sex couples, Jews by birth and Jews by choice.
We are filled with energy, warmth and spirituality. We are more than a congregation. We are family, we are neighbors, and we are friends.
There is a place for you at Beth Chaverim.

Sanctuary and Social Hall Renewal
Our challenge to every member family to contribute, in any amount, to the Sanctuary and Social Hall renewal, and to invite TWO OR MORE friends or family members to join you in supporting our renewal, continues in 2026. Share our one-step Givebutter link with them to make it super easy. It will be a big help if we can continue to broaden our funding base!
We're making great progress, but we still need about $6000 to purchase our new ark and bimah furnishings. Under the 'Support' tab click 'Donate' and select payment type 'Sanctuary & Social Hall Renewal Project" NOW.
We pray for the safety of Israel, its defense forces, and all innocent people in the region who are in harm’s way and for the speedy, safe return of those who have been captured.
