What is Bet Alef?
Our name means “The House of the One.” And that house is big enough to include every one. We are an inclusive, progressive, independent Jewish community deeply rooted in the enduring evolving wisdom of our ancient texts and traditions, yet unafraid to borrow and build from other sources in the service of offering a transformative personal spiritual encounter to all who come under our roof. We are not your old-school shul! And the best way to meet us is to come to one of our Shabbat services.

"Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life." Berthold Auerbach, German-Jewish poet.

Annual Community Picnic
Sunday, July 21st
4 PM - Dusk
Seward Park @ Shelter #2
Plan a dish to share with others and bring yourself, your friends, and your family to Seward Park for an afternoon/evening of food and fun! We'll have games, lake floats, and even some kayaks. Think about things like frisbees, volleyballs, or other games that might be fun in large groups.
We'll be right lakeside, so don't forget your swim gear, towels, and sunscreen.
We are looking forward to seeing you there!
