About Us

Home

Temple Beth Tzedek is a traditional egalitarian Conservative synagogue and now counts more than 450 families as member. We have an inclusive religious school and one of the city's most respected early learning centers. We are proud of how each member brings his or her own story to our diverse community—such as those who have a multi-generational history at our congregation and those new to the city or Temple Beth Tzedek, of all ages and backgrounds who are seeking a Jewish community – a place to call home.

As the Youth/Ed committee has done in the past, we are sending out packages to our undergraduate students to help them celebrate the holiday, but to also have some snacks as they are studying for their final exams. If you would like to ensure your student receives a package, please click on this link College Packages Form and fill it out no later than November 16th. No responses will be accepted after that date.

We have several bins in the synagogue by the coat racks for collection of wool socks, food for the needy and items for refugees coming in to our community. Please remember there are always people in need in our community. We thank you for your help.
