Welcome

We are a place that Reform Jews and their families – from all backgrounds – can truly call “home.”

A warm, welcoming community in an active Reform synagogue, we provide opportunities for spiritual growth, continuous learning, social action and fun. Our programs deepen and broaden the engagement of both current and prospective members in Jewish life and service.

B’nai Sholom welcomes newcomers to our congregation, including people in interfaith marriages and of all races, abilities, sexual orientations and gender identities.

Our congregation has a proud history, having been created in 1971 and finding its current quarters on Whitehall Road in 1979.  But long before we worshipped here, the Original Stewards of the land where B’nai Sholom sits were the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Schaghticoke First Nations, and the Mohican Tribe.  We hope our “custodianship” of #420 Whitehall Road, in- and outside the building, reflects honor and respect for the environment we live in.

We offer services and learning both in-person and online.

We invite you to join in our worship and study. Friday evening services start at 7:00 p.m. Tot Shabbat services are at 5:30 p.m. the second Friday of each month.

Call us at 518-482-5283 or email office@bnaisholom.albany.ny.us and we will be happy to send you information in a confirming email.

We look forward to welcoming you – online and in-person!

-Rabbi Danielle Weisbrot and the officers, trustees and members of B’nai Sholom
