Jewish Prayer: Finding our way into the History, Meaning, and Spirituality of our Worship Service
Starting Thursday, August 12
Please RSVP to rabbiwhinston@templebethemeth.org for either the 10:30 AM and 7:30 PM class – both are the same. In person and Zoom available.
Join Rabbi Whinston for an ongoing exploration of the individual prayers that constitute the majority of our worship, from Shabbat to High Holy Days. We will look at the rabbinic and biblical source material for the prayers, delve into the deeper meaning, and find the spiritual center of each prayer. Full Details.

Temple Beth Emeth Statement on Racism
The Congregation of Temple Beth Emeth affirms that racial justice is a Jewish issue.* We believe in the Jewish value of B’tzelem Elohim, that we are all made in the image of the Divine, deserving of love, safety and respect. Our society is built upon and sustained by racial bias, thus implicating our spiritual home as well. Through education and action, we will examine the impact of our biases on people of color, both within our Jewish community and beyond, and we will work to create a more inclusive community. Our prayer is that we will individually and collectively do our part to eliminate the plague of racism.
