News and Events
Everyone has a story to tell. Everyone can learn from one another's stories. That simple, but powerful message is at the heart of "Torat Chayeinu: Our Stories, Our Journey" - the 5771 theme of Beth Emet The Free Synagogue.
Through a variety of activities and programs, we will provide opportunities for individual members - from the young to the young at heart - to exchange personal stories of spiritual growth, to experience our Jewish story as told in Torah, and to fortify our journey as a congregation. Please enjoy the reflections of our Klei Kodesh (Senior Staff) and congregants captured in this collection listed below.
Go to the "Our Stories, Our Journey" blog, narrated by congregant and writer Ellen Blum Barish to share your spiritual journey through words, sounds and visual expression.
Also check out "The Beth Emet Bistro: Our Recipes and the Stories Behind Them" (updated for Shavuot 5771).
