Congregation Beth Am

About

Beth Am is a warm and friendly congregation. Our members form deep, long-lasting friendships and are dedicated to meaningful Jewish living.

Story

Welcome to Congregation Beth Am, a Reform congregation established in 1955 in Los Altos Hills, on the south bay of the San Francisco peninsula. We believe that Judaism offers people a path to life filled with meaning, joy, and spiritual fulfillment. No matter where you are on your own personal Jewish journey, there is a place for you here at Beth Am. We offer a variety of opportunities to engage, ranging from programs well suited for those new to Judaism or Jewish practice to programs for those with more experience. We provide each of our members numerous ways to find connections to a vibrant Jewish community.

Please check back often, see what’s on our calendar and join us! Again, we welcome you to our congregation and to our website.

Mission

We strive to live as a holy community whose study and practice of Judaism inspires and challenges us to “do justice, to love kindness and to walk humbly with our God" (Micah 6:8).

Reviews
The Torah Study class run by Rabbi Janet Marder on Saturday mornings from 9-10 pm is excellent. The services usually feature beautiful music, and Saturday morning "Torah minyan" services with congregational singing and less emphasis on "performance" by cantors and rabbis are uplifting as well. Rabbi Marder's sermons are amazing and are available as podcasts so you can check them out - she is the best teacher I have ever experienced (even in 12 years of graduate education). Rabbi Sarah Wolfe is also an exceptional young rabbi as well. Cantor Lauren Bandman has a beautiful voice and is an excellent singer. The educational programs for young children are good too; our family particularly enjoys the shabbaton program which elementary school children and their parents attend together. Spouses or partners born as non-Jews are welcome, whether they converted to Judiasm or not, and the congregation is welcoming to the LGBT community as well.
