Our Atrium

How awesome is this place! This is none other than a Beit Elohim!

(Gen . 28:17)

Transforming our building from stone and steel into a makom, a sacred space.

About Our Atrium

Here is the place to gather, take a breath, see familiar faces, orient yourself to the sacred. If you stand on the second floor balcony of the atrium and look down, you will see it all, the totality of our shared experience at TBE: the place for prayer, for gathering, for cooking, for sharing, for learning, for working, for meeting; living life fully as a Jewish community. The openness of our design and our many interior windows is intended to create transparency, inviting you to see and experience new possibilities; to join in, to move from where you are, to engage in something new with us.

Amid the Covid-19 pandemic, we found ourselves with a fairly empty calendar.  Why not participate in the distribution process?

Ten Years of Community Action

I am so pleased with how CASA has grown and impacted so many individuals, both within TBE and in the many agencies where we volunteered.

Impact of Family Table on Our Family

Once a month, my mom and I head out to JF&CS in Waltham to package and deliver groceries.

Reading Our Atrium

Reflect on the Jewish text that inspired the design of our atrium and how we live our values here.

All our paths lead to shalom.
