Welcome

HELLO and SHALOM from our Temple Beth Israel community, or as we like to refer to ourselves TBI. We are glad that you have decided to have a look around our website. We are an embracing synagogue family that brings together all levels of Jewish life to build a meaningful community. After you browse our site, send us an e-mail, give us a call or stop in to visit and chat. We want to share the TBI experience with you!

Temple Beth Israel is an egalitarian, contemporary Conservative synagogue that has been serving the greater Port Washington community for over 80 years

Be Enriched

Create and share Jewish experiences. Deepen and expand your connections to Jewish life. Practice Tikkun Olam and be part of our annual Mitzvah Day program. Give Tzedakah or lead an outreach program.  Become enriched and enrich others – as an individual, within your family, our congregation and with the larger Jewish community around the corner…and around the world.

Be Inspired

At TBI, inspiration is everywhere. From Rabbi Mishkin’s teachings and Cantor Vadim's songs, to the congregant seated next to you…an educator in our Hebrew School. . .a B’nai Mitzvah’s D’var Torah. . .or a casual chat over dessert and coffee at an Oneg Shabbat.   Be inspired by our members from all stages of life and celebrate every step of your Jewish journey with us.

Belong

Whether you are a traditional or a non-traditional household, single parent, blended family, intermarried or a family with special needs, at TBI you’ll find a warm and welcoming community.  TBI provides our members with Klal Yisrael – unity within diversity of the Jewish people; T’fillah and Chinuch – prayer, ritual, education, study;  Kavod, Kehilla and Menschlicheit – dignity, decency, respect, community, sharing, support.  When you belong to TBI, all of this belongs to you.
