Interfaith

Our Outreach Committee offers a variety of programs to address the challenges that face interfaith families. We want to support the growing number of Temple families in interfaith marriages, those who are Jews by Choice, or have children who have intermarried. Outreach is a program developed and supported by the Union for Reform Judaism which provides congregations with innovative resources to help individuals, interfaith couples and families, particularly the non-Jewish partner, feel more comfortable in a Reform setting.

Our Outreach Committee’s goal is to help strengthen our congregation by ensuring all our families feel a welcomed part of our Temple community and support them in making Jewish choices. We actively welcome interfaith families at Temple Beth David and encourage their participation in our synagogue.
