Rooted deeply. Our association with KKBE links us to a distinguished past. As one of the oldest congregations in America (founded in 1749), the birthplace of Reform Judaism in America (1824), and home to the oldest sanctuary in continuous use for Jewish worship in America, we are committed to preserving the legacy of our heritage. We come to KKBE to feel the spiritual uplift that comes from connecting with our deep roots. And, with pride, we share the stories of our historic congregation, sanctuary, and cemetery with visitors from throughout our city, country, and around the world. Growing wisely. At KKBE, “Reform” is a verb. Through reflection, study, experimentation and change, we affirm the ability of our congregation, and its individual members, to grow and evolve Jewishly. We strive to be lifelong learners, open to finding wisdom in ancient texts and spirituality in modern songs. We take seriously the mandate of Reform Judaism to make “educated choices;” we empower our members and educate our children to make Judaism a meaningful and significant part of their lives. Cultivating community. We seek to be an inclusive community for all individuals who wish to make KKBE their spiritual home. As we support one another through our joys and sorrows, as we come together to the rhythm of the Jewish calendar, we grow together as a congregation, as a family. Just as we cultivate relationships within the walls of our synagogue with care and intentionality, so too do we cultivate inclusivity and opportunity throughout the wider community. We embrace our sacred teaching not just to seek justice and peace, but to pursue them.

STF is a Church for the city, country, and nation. In Mattew 28:19, Jesus commanded the first disciples to “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations.” Did you know that more than 6,000 of the world’s people groups are still unreached? That translates to an estimated 3.28 billion unreached people living in the world today out of 7.84 billion people globally. We’ve still got a lot of work to do at home and abroad! Please make no mistake. The great commission is for us to obey. At STF, we want to see God’s glory realized in the lives of those who are still walking in darkness without the gospel, which is the message of eternal life. Our vision is to reach the lost with the gospel. Then, disciple them in order to release missionaries into the parts of the world where God is calling.

As far back as 1915, a small group of Berkeley Jews had been gathering for Friday night and Holiday services in rented space above downtown stores. It took nearly a decade for them to find a permanent home, but on July 20, 1924, the cornerstone of the Berkeley Hebrew Center was laid at Bancroft and Jefferson Streets in Berkeley. Most of the founders of the East Bay’s fledgling traditional congregation were immigrants to this country, and nostalgic for the life they had left behind in Europe. They were helped in their attempts to establish a Berkeley base by two of the area’s leading Reform rabbis, Martin Meyer and Louis I. Newman of San Francisco’s Temple Emanuel. Rabbi Meyer served as a trustee as early as 1915; Newman, his favorite disciple, took over upon his death in 1923.

Via de Cristo means "Way of Christ" and is the Lutheran expression of Cursillo®, which is Spanish for "short course in Christianity." It's a method of renewing Christian life. This structured three-day weekend retreat is designed to strengthen and to renew the faith of Christian people, their families, their congregations, and their environments. It is not a "Charismatic Movement," nor does it actively promote a specific "conversion experience." Via de Cristo is a lay movement involving laity and clergy in the renewal of the church. It is a Christian leadership course. Via de Cristo is an instrument of renewal of our spiritual life in the church. Its aim is to concentrate on the Person and the teachings of Jesus Christ. The focus of Via de Cristo is not on itself, but on the local church. The objective of Via de Cristo is to inspire, to challenge, and to equip local church members for Christian action in their homes, churches, places of work, and communities.

Both Hands mission is to fulfill James 1:27 by serving orphans, widows, and Christian adoptive families. Based in Nashville, TN, Both Hands helps adoptive families and volunteer groups organize service projects for widows while raising funds for adoptions and orphan-related causes. Similar to a 5k race, a family or group gathers a team of volunteers who commit to serving a widow in their community. The volunteers also send letters to raise sponsorship for their day of service with the funds raised going towards the family's adoption costs. All the while, the widow receives free help on their home. As of August 2023, over 1,250 Both Hands projects have been completed across 45 states. Those projects have raised $17.5 million for adoption costs, and counting! Learn more at BothHands.org

It has always been our passion, vision, and desire to assist young people by enabling them to remain focused in life, by having an opportunity to be successful and productive, and by developing their spiritual maturity in Christ. In the past, we have done this one child at a time. We have assisted children with finances, counseling, coaching, and education. We have even taken children into our home to live to assist in raising them during their parents’ trials and challenges in life. We have raised $397,164 towards the $1,500,000 target. Statistics show, and our experiences have confirmed, that there is a growing need for a safe haven for an increasing number of our teens who, unfortunately, live in an environment that is not conducive to achieving their goals. These teens are not troubled youth, but are the children of troubled or absent parents, who may be struggling with their own problems or who are not in a position to take care of them. In response to this growing need, and our personal desire to see children achieve in life, it is our desire to build and/or purchase ‘a home’ to house, nurture, and provide direction and spiritual guidance to teens until they are able to graduate from high school and, prayerfully, attend college, enroll in the military, or otherwise embark on a path to a bright future. Thus, the Elder’s House has been birthed. The Elder’s House will be able to provide the safe and nurturing environment these teens need during the important stages of their lives. The Elder’s House is currently designed to house up to twenty-two teens, occupying two separate and secure wings. The two separate wings allow for both young ladies and young men to stay there. There is a separate ‘house parents’ apartment for twenty-four hour adult supervision, as well as office space for other adult supervision in the areas of food service, maintenance, counseling, and office management.
