Beth El Seniors

Our members don’t slow down or step back as they get older — they do more than ever to help our community grow, learn, and thrive. Beth El’s Seniors make it clear that getting older doesn’t mean settling for things as they are. Instead, they’re working to make things better for all of us. Originally launched in 1977 as Beth El’s “Club 50,” the Seniors is dedicated to enriching the social lives of Beth El’s men and women over 65.

Seniors’ signature events.

Seniors Shabbat

The Seniors lead a special congregational Shabbat service, assuming the roles of clergy, gabbaim, Torah readers, and even delivering the weekly sermon.

Monthly Connection Program
