We are your Jewish home in the South Sound
Our congregation has long been part of the life of Tacoma and Pierce County. We began in 1892, and we continue today as the center of Jewish life in the county. Today's Temple Beth El synagogue building was constructed in 1968, and an addition was made in 1993.
We are a warm and caring community devoted to creating a home for living Judaism where Jews of all backgrounds feel welcome. We are dedicated to helping you grow in your knowledge and observance of Judaism. We are a place where learning becomes the key to unlocking the door to a lifetime of Jewish fulfillment and commitment.
Here you will find a congregation characterized by Torah (study), t’filah (worship) and tikkun olam (social justice). These are the basis through which we provide Jewish programs and activities that we hope will be meaningful and spiritually uplifting for people of all ages. We welcome you to our temple family.
