Adult Education
Temple Beth Emeth believes in lifelong learning and has a wide variety of engaging adult
education programming. Programs are led by clergy members, staff and lay leaders, and range from formal study sessions, informal discussions, preparing for the holidays and more. If you're looking for a book club, to learn more about the Talmud, to delve into Jewish prayer, or you're interested in a retreat to connect with your fellow congregants, we have a program to meet your needs.
