The House of Love
Beit Ahavah (בֵּית אַהֲבָה) is a joyful, progressive and inclusive spiritual Jewish community affiliated with the Reform movement, a warm and welcoming place for members from all backgrounds. Together we strive to create sacred community, offering many ways to connect with Judaism.
Our membership is an expression of individual and family commitments and a way for each person to expand their Jewish horizons through learning and doing, spiritual growth for nurturing your self, building community, and healing the world.
We create participatory services, involvement and pathways of connection, both virtually and in-person when possible — life cycle events; spiritual and pastoral care led by our rabbi Rabbi Riqi Kosovske; community involvement at the High Holydays; engaging year-round or seasonal committees, celebrations, and projects; support of the Union for Reform Judaism (URJ) and Religious Action Center (RAC) for their resources and leadership trainings; inspiration from the ALEPH Renewal movement, other streams of Judaism, and our sacred interfaith partnerships; RUACH Community School, Tot Shabbat families, enriching family education, and youth and teen programs; and opportunities for on-going adult learning, fun and engagement.
