Comments (0)Beth Am Missing
October 30, 2009Thank you for highlighting the activities of Jewish families in downtown Baltimore in the Oct. 23 iNSIDER article “Urbanite… Suburbanite.”
We couldn’t help but notice that Beth Am Synagogue was not mentioned as a resource for families who live in the city. Beth Am has for more than 30 years been committed to our city neighborhood of Reservoir Hill. Our vibrant congregation and active religious school draw members from neighborhoods throughout Baltimore City and Baltimore County.
Many young Jewish city dwelling families are Beth Am congregants. Members of the greater community are always welcome to join us for our family programming. On Oct. 30, we will have a musical Kabbalat Shabbat, which is ideal for children and adults of all ages. Monthly Tot Shabbats are also open to all. Our weekly Shabbat morning services draw a multigenerational crowd that lingers over Kiddush lunch. We are delighted to welcome guests and visitors.
