Congregation Beth Ahm

Welcome to Congregation Beth Ahm!

Formed in 1892, Congregation Beth Ahm was established to provide
opportunities to explore and practice Judaism in a warm and approachable environment. We believe in the value of promoting an inviting, caring and welcoming environment where we demonstrate compassion toward others through derech eretz, tzedakah and tikkun olam.

Please join us to experience Congregation Beth Ahm at one of

these upcoming events or click on the calendar to see more.

Donating One's Body to Medical Research

Join Rabbi Rubenstein as we explore the question of donating one’s body to medical education. Topics we’ll explore: honoring the dead without delaying burial; the mitzva of Pikuah Nefesh (saving a life); when would shiva and other mourning practices begin if a loved one chooses to donate their body for medical education.
