Your Home for Meaningful Jewish Prayer, Learning and Living in Central Fairfield County

Under the leadership of Rabbi Joseph Ron Fish, Beth El is a growing, vibrant community that provides its membership with spiritual, educational and social nourishment through a committment to Conservative Judaism. We are a house of gathering & study with dynamic programming for all ages.  In 2009 Congregation Beth El received 5 Solomon Schechter Awards for Excellence in Synagogue Programming from The United Synagogue of Conservative Judiasm. Join our members from throughout Fairfield County for Shabbat, Holidays, quality programming and an inspiring connection to Jewish life.

Iranian-descended singer Galeet Dardashti leads Divahn's edgy all-female power-house ensemble. The group has an international following, performing in venues ranging from international concert halls to the most prestigious clubs in NYC. Infusing traditional and original Middle Eastern Jewish songs with sophisticated harmonies, entrancing improvisations, and funky arrangements, Divahn's shows feature lush string arrangements, eclectic Indian, Middle Eastern, and Latin percussion, and vocals spanning Hebrew, Judeo-Spanish, Persian, Arabic, and Aramaic. “Divahn” a word common to Hebrew, Persian, and Arabic, means a collection of songs or poetry. Through their music, the group creatively underscores common ground between diverse Middle Eastern cultures and religions. click here for ticket order form.

Rabbi Fish has recorded over 40 prayers for the Friday Night Service (Kabbalat Shabbat and Ma'ariv), blessings for the home and prayers for Saturday Morning and they are all availble to you for learning at home so that you may better participate in synagogue services.
