Welcome to Bet Am Shalom

     We are a vibrant, egalitarian congregation of families and individuals from diverse backgrounds who are bound to each other by a shared belief in a thoughtful and progressive approach to Judaism. We are affiliated with the Reconstructionist movement. With a deep respect for tradition, we seek to evolve as the world around us evolves. The creative spirit of our members fuels our community as together we learn, share lifecycle events, support each other and commit to tikkun olam.

     We welcome you to visit or contact us at betamshalom@betamshalom.org for more information.
