Welcome!

We want to build a community based on inclusiveness, where everyone is welcome regardless of age, marital status, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, Jew-by-choice, or Jew-by-birth. When Temple Beth El was founded in 1947, its members dedicated themselves to the creation of a home for living Judaism – a place where newcomers feel welcome, where Jewish ideals are made real, and where education is the key that unlocks the door to a lifetime of Jewish fulfillment and commitment. We are proud of this tradition and hope that your association with us will be spiritually and emotionally satisfying.

The Kern County Fair is just around the corner (Sept 17-28) and that means the Pastrami King will be open!  We need volunteers to help.  We will cover the parking and entrance to the fair.  You can sign up at Pastrami King and select dates and times you are able to volunteer.

 

At Temple Beth El, we are always ready to celebrate! 

Now you can let everybody know that you are ready to celebrate as well AND help support TBE at the same time.  WIN-WIN!  Follow this link to order your t-shirts, pullover or zip hoodies in children and adult sizes.

Superman embodies aspects that many of us strive to emulate: strength, compassion, honesty, and doing the right thing under all circumstances. So when James Gunn, the co-CEO of DC Studios, was announced as the writer and director of "Superman," the first movie set in the new DC Cinematic Universe (DCU), I was intrigued.
