My wife and I joined Beth Am Israel in 2019. I had been looking for some time for a thriving community of prayer and worship, with well-attended Shabbat services and minyanim that offered the best of traditional prayers and ritual alongside modern religious thought and practice. I found it here - and so much more! This is a warm and deeply supportive community of neighbors who look out for one another - and for the wider community and world, with an extraordinary commitment to social justice and community service. I would especially encourage people who haven't been to Beth Am to come for a Friday evening service. It's a musical and spiritual experience that will give you the real feel of Shabbat, and totally make your week. Whatever makes Jewish life meaningful for you, if you haven't found a synagogue that brings it to life, visit Beth Am. I think you may find what you are looking for too.

Our son, David, is the Rabbi of Beth Am Israel. Even though we live in NYC we became members of BAI to be supportive.We never anticipated the benefits we would receive. This is a warm, friendly congregation filled with spiritual, intellectual people of all ages. There is always a moving service, an event, a lecture, an interfaith program, music, a picnic, a hike--something for all ages and interests. The programs for kids are phenomenal and fun. Well worth the commute for us, whether by Zoom, Livestream or in person. Join us!!

We have been members at Beth Am Israel for many years. In a community with many synagogues, Beth Am stands out for its warm, inclusive, diverse, and creative soul. Our Rabbi, Cantor and staff are fantastic and have gone the extra mile during the pandemic to help make sure that we all feel safe and connected even while socially distant. Beth Am is truly a family. Highly recommend our wonderful community!

Bet Am is a very caring and warm community which plays an important role in inter faith, charitable and other communal activities. The services are beautiful and inspiring.

BAI has always been a place where, in Abraham Joshua Heschel's intentions, tradition has a vote but not a veto. So, BAI feels both traditional and homey, as well as expansive, flexible, interesting, and inclusive. It has been a place to pass on historical memory, rituals, and ethical behaviors from our Jewish cultural traditions. It allies with other synagogues and churches for social justice, singing and friendship. Beautiful place!!
