Congregation B'nai Israel

As Sacramento’s oldest Jewish congregation and its largest Reform synagogue, B’nai Israel is devoted to honoring the traditions of our heritage while creating a Jewish experience that is relevant to today’s society. We nurture spirituality and personal reflection through prayer, music, education and social action. We foster friendship and community with Shabbat dinners, ritual events and affinity groups that reflect our diversity. Congregation B’nai Israel welcomes families and singles, young and old, gay and straight.

Look at the community section of this web site to learn more about our groups for women, men, teenagers, young adults, senior citizens, singles and interfaith couples. This is also where you can find out how to get involved in our social action efforts or join a Chavurah.

Under education, check out the exciting news about Camp Shelanu, CBI's summer day camp for Kindergarden through 10th graders. We're making plans now for a fabulous 3rd season.

Planning a wedding, bris or other lifecycle event?  Looking for information on Holidays or Shabbat services? You’ll find your answers in the worship section.

Our spiritual leader is Rabbi Mona Alfi.  You can learn more about her and other temple leaders in the about section, where you will also find information on B’nai Israel’s nearly 160-year history and our newly renovated sanctuary.

The best way to experience B’nai Israel, of course, is in person.  Please look at the calendar for details on the spiritual, educational and fun events we host. And then come check us out.

Chadashot is a recurring update of temple and community events.
To sign up for Chadashot, email our Administrator, Mandy Greene.
