TEMPLE BETH EL OFFERS MULTIPLE PRIDE MONTH EVENTS & PROGRAMS

Boca Raton, FL (May 20, 2021) In commemoration of June being Pride Month, Temple Beth El of Boca Raton has planned multiple options all month long for both in-person events at their Schaefer Family Campus (SFC) in east Boca and other locations in the area, as well as Virtual Beth El programming to provide an opportunity for all who wish to learn about and support the LGBTQ+ community within our own Jewish community.

The temple is a welcoming and inclusive community not just during Pride Month, but 365 days a year.

  “Temple Beth El celebrates Pride Month because of what it stands for and what we envision our community to be. Our Torah teaches us that each person is created in God’s image and challenges us to see the divinity in everyone. As the LGBTQ community celebrates Pride Month and remembers when, in June 1969, LGBTQ folks in New York stood up for themselves and called out to the world to embrace their humanity, we join in that effort. I am excited that our congregation will be offering opportunities for learning, to participate in community events, and to recognize and celebrate the LGBTQ members of our own community,” says Rabbi Greg Weisman.”
