Ten years ago, a dedicated group of Beth Emet congregants, supported by Rabbi Peter Knobel, Rabbi Andrea London and our Board of Directors, Beth Emet established our soup kitchen. Each week, through the generous commitment of many, many volunteers, the Soup Kitchen serves a nutritious and appealing dinner, in a dignified environment, to approximately 100 guests.
Guests often enjoy live background music while they dine, and receive a sack lunch afterwards.
Not only are we feeding hungry people, the Soup Kitchen has been a "bridge of understanding" between us as Jews and the many guests who dine with us each week, for whom we are the only knowledge they may have of Jewish people.
From helping prepare and serve meals to donating second-hand books to our patrons, the Beth Emet Soup Kitchen can use your time and talent.
