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.

2025 Year End Campaign

Lighting the Path Forward for the Next 40 Years

Just as we kindle the Hanukkah lights to commemorate miracles of the past while illuminating the present. Your support today will light the path for the next 40 years of Jewish life, learning, and community in our sacred space.

Our Challenge:

Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of multiple community members, every dollar you give will be matched—up to $80,000. This means your gift has double the impact as we work together toward our congregation-wide goal of $160,000.
