Welcome to Temple Beth El – Jefferson City
Our historic building was constructed in 1883 and is the oldest synagogue west of the Mississippi in continuous use.
Shabbat Services are held every Friday night at 7:30 and visitors are always welcome. Our congregation includes 25+ families, with members of all ages. Temple Beth El is affiliated with the Union for Reform Judaism.
We are open for in-person Shabbat Services on Friday nights, and also offer a Zoom option. Please contact us if you would like the Zoom code.
In general the Temple will follow the Jefferson City Public Schools and will move to “Zoom only” services when school is cancelled.
It might be snowing outside, but Tu Bi’Shevat, the celebration of Trees, is Feb 13, a sign that Spring is coming.
A few highlights from Hanukkah
We Stand with Israel
In response to the devastating Hamas terrorist attacks on Israel please join us in support and solidarity. Israel needs our love, support and connections more than ever. Please pray for the return of the hostages, peace, and security for Israel now and in the months ahead.
