Old York Road Temple-Beth Am, The House of the People is a sacred and welcoming community committed to enriching the lives of our members and the broader community through a meaningful, evolving, and joyful Jewish life.
We are guided by a spirit of genuine warmth and inclusivity, often described by both members and visitors as the defining essence of our congregation. In pursuit of this mission, we:
- Provide meaningful worship and spiritual connection, blending the beauty of Jewish tradition with the innovation and relevance of today’s dynamic Reform movement.
- Inspire lifelong learning, offering outstanding educational opportunities through the Religious School (Kindergarten through Confirmation), the School of Early Learning, and Harry Silver Annual Scholar-in-Residence Program.
- Champion social justice and community engagement, encouraging our congregation to actively live out Jewish values through advocacy, volunteerism, and compassionate action.
- Foster cultural enrichment and connection, offering a wide range of cultural, social, and intergenerational programs that reflect the diverse interests and backgrounds of our members.
At Old York Road Temple-Beth Am, we celebrate tradition, embrace change, and strengthen Jewish life for today and the generations to come.
