WELCOME TO BETH EL SYNAGOGUE! 1004 Watts Street Durham, NC 27701 919-682-1238 Fax:919-682-7898 Beth El is a pluralistic community and welcomes members who have diverse backgrounds, ideas, levels of knowledge, and observance. We are an egalitarian Conservative congregation and a member of the Southeast Seaboard District of the United Synagogue for Conservative Judaism, which hosts this website. We offer an Orthodox Kehillah affiliated with the Orthodox Union for those who wish to worship in accordance with that tradition. Rabbi Steven Sager, our spiritual leader since 1978, will become Rabbi Emeritus on August 1, 2010. Rabbi Sager plans to remain an active part of the Beth El Community as our Baal Batei Midrash. Our community eagerly awaits the arrival of our new Rabbi, Daniel Greyber, currently the Executive Director of Ramah California. After a year in Israel as a Jerusalem Fellow at the Mandel Leadership Institute, Rabbi Greyber will join us full time in July 2011. Prior to then, he will lead 2010 High Holiday services, and will visit with the congregation several times during this coming year, including for the annual Beach Shabbaton on December 17-19. Rabbi Frank Fischer, a long-time and beloved Beth El member and former Hillel Rabbi will act as the interim Rabbi for Beth El in the coming year. Our web site is filled with resources for you to explore. We welcome your comments and suggestions in order to make your on-line experience useful and fulfilling. Thank you for visiting us!
