Beth El Hebrew Congregation Social Action
Tikkun Olam (Repairing the World)—Social action and justice are core values of Judaism.
Our community’s commitment to social action in the world is an integral part of who we are at Beth El Hebrew Congregation. It is truly a “way of life” for our community.
Throughout the year, we offer numerous activities and programs. We invite all our members to join with us in social action.
