From the first services, which welcomed the rising sun at the ark and watched it set at the doors to the Sanctuary by the river, the Temple has been a place where all are valued, and which the staff has continued to create a sense of community and belonging for anyone who visits.

Beth El also has a strong service and social action program, assisting and supporting service initiatives throughout the local community, and hosting food and essential service drives for the underprivileged.
