Pray
There are many different ways to be Jewish, and we at Beth Jacob respect a wide range of Jewish customs, practices, and beliefs. We love to sing during the service - traditional prayer melodies; new melodies for prayers by people like Debbie Friedman (Reform), Shlomo Carlebach (Orthodox), Shefa Gold (Jewish Renewal), and other recent composers; and folk and popular songs. And we have great discussions, bringing in many perspectives: spiritual, scientific, historical, and literary. We invite everyone to join us in our warm community, as we explore how to bring Judaism into each of our lives.
