Our Temple
Welcome to Temple Beth Shalom! We are a small, active congregation, which is always growing, not only in size but also in spirit and community. Our membership is composed of all ages, families and singles, Jews, non-Jews and Jews-by-Choice, all levels of observance and come from all branches of Judaism. We are truly a haimisch mishmash! Our temple stands upon the volunteer work of our members, and we are thankful for their efforts in teaching, maintenance, and both lay & business leadership.
Our student Rabbis inspire and educate us. They and our lead B'nai Mitzvah tutor, Chuck London, prepare our great kids for their special days.
This year of 2010 is the Twenty-fifth Anniversary of the founding of Temple Beth Shalom. We will have more information on the upcoming celebrations later here and in our Bulletins.
If you live in the area, we hope you will join Temple Beth Shalom. If you are visiting, we heartily welcome you to join us for our Shabbat worship, which is somewhat casual yet lively. During our student Rabbi's summer hiatus, our capable band of lay leaders provides the weekly service leadership. For all services, be prepared to sing!
Please scroll down to the section of Reform Jewish Links from the URJ. There you will find links to 10 Minutes of Torah, the week's Torah Portion, the Holidays and all about Reform Judaism. Links are updated weekly or, for the 10 Minutes of Torah, daily.
If you have any further questions, although we do not have a full-time staff, please call us at (850) 862-6086, leave a message and we will return your call, OR Email us at TBSNWFL@aol.com
