Congregation B'nai Shalom is a joyous congregation where all are welcome. Visit us for Erev Shabbat, Shabbat and for any of our social events or classes. Congregation B’nai Shalom is a thriving kehilla – a community – comprised of families and individuals spanning the generations. We are Jews by birth, Jews by choice and supportive non-Jewish family members. We are married and single, parents and those without children, retirees and young adults. We meet our varied and individual needs by sharing rituals and holiday celebrations, and through learning, community service, social events and political awareness.
