Temple B'nai Chaim is a modern Reform congregation inspired by over 3000 years of tradition. We believe in a living Judaism compatible with contemporary science, historical understanding, and ethical sensibilities, which reflects everyday reality and is refined by it. We are a member congregation of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations. We welcome all Jews, their partners and families regardless of background. We affirm the equality between men and women, members of all ages, races, physical conditions, and sexual orientations.
Members are free to express themselves as autonomous individuals.
We believe in the progressive development in religion welcoming all perception, whether from scripture or from the records of nature. We employ both traditional and unique contemporary, creative prayer and music. We are a center for the highest moral and ethical standard, we strive to achieve universal justice and peace, and we are a caring community devoted to those in need. Our style is contemporary, non-dogmatic and flexible, yet retains traditional Jewish values. Although we meet all the varied needs of our diverse membership, we are the most proud of our fine educational system.
