An Evening of Gratitude
Thank and celebrate clergy, staff, and teachers for keeping our community strong and vibrant.
In place of our annual fundraising event, we hope you will join us as we thank clergy, staff, learning program teachers, and Gan Elohim teachers who have worked tirelessly and imaginatively over these past months. In this most stressful time for our community, they lead us in meaningful worship and music, facilitate tikkun olam efforts, keep our building safe, comfort the sick and grieving, support us through somber lifecycle events, and celebrate with us through joyous ones. Most importantly, they have kept our community strong and vibrant. We ask that you join us for an extended Shabbat service and program to honor and recognize them.
Join us to express our gratitude
Celebrating Together

Naso: Lifted by the Heavy Work of Repair
In this sermon, Sandy Aronson, TBE’s Director of Tikkun Olam Initiatives & Partnerships, reflects on the burdens we bear today—the weight of injustice, heartbreak, and division—and how, like our ancestors, we can find strength and elevation in the act of carrying what matters most.
TBE in Action
Watch videos of our clergy, teachers, and staff in action!
We asked our clergy, staff, and community to reflect on the year and share their thoughts on what it means—past, present, and future—to be TBE.
Thank you to our corporate sponsors!
