Our Mission

 Beth Sholom welcomes intermarried couples to our community. We treat everyone with warmth and respect. We are very enthusiastic about our traditions and the opportunities Judaism offers to make life more spiritual and meaningful. But we also recognize that our way is not the only path to a godly life. Our sages declared that the "righteous of all people will inherit the bliss of the hereafter."

We offer teaching and mentoring to help intermarried families feel comfortable in our synagogue community. And we offer opportunities for the non-Jewish partner to participate in our community's life. We hope you will join us.

Contact Lucille Carter at cbsdover@juno.com with any questions you may have.

It's been more than 7 years since "Welcome To Congregation Beth Sholom went on line." We'd like to take a moment to thank all the hard work David Wothers & Susan Auerbach put into our original CBSDover website.

Congregation Beth Sholom is affiliated with the conservative movement. However, our membership is diverse, representing a wide range of paths to Judaism. We welcome the non-Jewish family relatives along with the Jewish members, and those who are interested in finding out more about Judaism. We invite you to become part of our warm and supportive community.

At Beth Sholom we emphasize Jewish learning as the path to spiritual developement and responsible action.

If you feel you don't know enough about Judaism, we will help you learn. We believe that every moment has the possibility to be a Jewish teaching moment, whether it happens in the sanctuary or the kitchen, during a men's club or sisterhood meeting, whether engaging in a social activity or social action. Judaism is a rich treasure awaiting our exploration.

For thousands of years Jews have acted through communities, sharing a sense of common destiny and responsibility. That tradition continues in our synagogue. We want to live our lives to represent the best Jewish values, and we want to support Jewish community life in Dover.

We offer teaching and mentoring to help intermarried families feel comfortable in our synagogue community. And we offer opportunities for the non-Jewish partner to participate in our community's life. We hope you will join us.
