Community

Bnai Keshet provides a real community that responds to many different interests. Along with our full schedule of religious services and religious school classes, members are offered a wide range of courses, family events, social action projects, social get-togethers, discussion groups, and interfaith-union support groups.

There are many opportunities to get involved in the Bnai Keshet community through participation in our various committees. Contact the Committee Chair for more information.
