MEMBERSHIP

Recognizing that there is no such thing as one-size-fits-all Judaism, we provide a variety of paths for people to become engaged, explore their practice of Judaism, and celebrate our Jewish traditions.

Congregation Beth Sholom’s offerings include a religious school, educational programs, regular minyans (prayer services), meditation, and many community groups that inspire and give back to our congregation and the Bay Area at large. In addition, we have a thriving preschool that adds immeasurably to the vitality of our community.

We would be happy to discuss ways you can participate in our vibrant congregation. CBS is ready to contribute positively to your life, and there are myriad ways for you to engage with CBS and the larger community.

Congregation Beth Sholom raises the majority of its operating funds from ongoing financial commitments of its members. Being a member of our congregation means pledging this kind of support so we can serve you, your family and the entire community, today and into the future. Membership commitment levels are found on the membership application (select one below). Current members may renew online: new members will be contacted by the Director of Membership after their application is submitted.

For those who are able, we invite you to join our Parnas fellowship. These contributions provide a more solid foundation for the Congregation and form the backbone of our membership support.
