Our membership is representative of the broader community: mature couples, singles, "traditional" Jewish families, interfaith families, and gay and lesbian Jews.
Shalom and welcome to Bnai Keshet, a spirited, friendly Reconstructionist Synagogue serving the greater Essex County area. At Bnai Keshet a diverse group of people come together to form a warm, spiritually invigorating and intellectually rigorous Jewish community.
Bnai Keshet is a vibrant Reconstructionist congregation that values both the unique individual backgrounds and beliefs of its diverse members and our shared historical traditions. We celebrate our role as participants in the evolution of Judaism by engaging our tradition thoughtfully, so it remains meaningful and relevant to each of us. In this spirit, we are committed to life long education, to hesed (caring), to tikkun olam (repairing the world), and to sharing important life events. We are an informal and respectful community moved by prayer, fired by lively discussion, enlivened by laughter and song.
