Shalom and Welcome to Temple Beth El Print E-mail


starTemple Beth El is a Conservative congregation of approximately 350 families located in Portland, Maine. We are affiliated with United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism of America and offer an open and inviting atmosphere through which each congregant can find an opportunity for individually meaningful religious expression.

Our mission is to be an embracing, supportive and vibrant community which observes Judaism in the Conservative tradition and which is devoted to the perpetuation of Jewish values and culture.  Temple Beth El honors the diversity of its members and is committed to their spiritual, intellectual and religious growth.

 
May Our Doorway Print E-mail
May the door of this synagogue be wide enough
to receive all who hunger for love,
all who are lonely for fellowship.
May it welcome all who have cares to unburden,
thanks to express, hopes to nurture.
May the door of this synagogue be narrow enough
to shut out pettiness and pride, envy and enmity.
May its threshold be no stumbling block
to young or straying feet.
May it be too high to admit complacency,
selfishness, and harshness.
May this synagogue be, for all who enter,
the doorway to a richer and more meaningful life.
