Welcome to Beth Jacob Congregation

We are a welcoming, traditionally progressive, egalitarian synagogue located in Mendota Heights, Minnesota.  We are guided by the principles of Torah (study), Avodah (meaningful worship and work), and Gemilut Chasidim (acts of loving kindness). We exist as a congregation in order to practice and further our understanding of Conservative Judaism through the celebration of Shabbat, holidays and lifecycle events, and daily practice.

Help Support Beth Jacob by Volunteering for Shabbat & Holidays

Our shul runs smoothly due to the strong involvement from our lay leadership.  Every Shabbat, we host a communal kiddush, and we welcome everyone personally at the door. We are asking you to join us and help volunteer on Shabbat Mornings.  This is a mitzvah that we ask of all members of our community.

Greeters work in two different shifts from 9:00-10:30 am and 10:30 am-12 pm. As we endeavor to ensure a safe building, a welcoming face at the door is very important. The greeter’s main role is to open the front doors and welcome our community.

Sign up to be a Greeter

We have always said that Kitchen Duty is a key element of connecting, collaborating and strengthening ties in our community! Members are randomly assigned volunteer shifts on Saturdays to support the success of kiddush luncheons.
