Learning

Temple Beth El's Approach and Philosophy

Temple Beth El strives to present a wide spectrum of stimulating learning experiences for children and adults of all ages. In addition to our Hebrew School and Adult Education programs, we regularly sponsor interesting and provocative speakers. These individuals may come from other local, national, or international settings to address Temple Beth El and the Portland community on topics such as Jewish history and observance, Jewish ethics, family and life stages, current Jewish political issues, Jewish diversity and life style choices, and rituals from birth to mourning.
