Temple Sinai in Oakland and Congregation Beth El in Berkeley are joining together again to offer Introduction to Judaism beginning in October 2025. Learn with Beth El and Sinai clergy about the rituals, holidays, beliefs, big questions, and complexities of Judaism in a welcoming and communal environment. This class is open to all - the Jewish adult who wishes to discover or deepen Jewish knowledge, those who are not Jewish who have a Jewish partner and those who are just curious to learn more about Judaism, or those considering choosing Judaism. Participants register for each semester separately, and semesters may be taken in any order. Please email; Rabbi Bressler for questions or to learn more.  Click here to register and see the calendar!

Second semester dates will be shared soon and will take place at Congregation Beth El beginning in mid-February.
