Beth Israel is a long
established conservative congregation located in Salisbury, Maryland. It
was founded seventy-six years ago and is the only Conservative
congregation on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. The Congregation represents
a moderate and flexible approach to traditional Judaism in this area.
Beth Israel has
approximately 110 membership units, mostly from Salisbury, but with some
from other parts of the Eastern Shore and beyond. The building was
constructed in 1951 and has a beautiful and charming traditional
sanctuary, adorned with beautiful stained glass windows.
Beth Israel has a
full program of services, education for children, adults, Bar/Bat Mitzvah,
holiday celebrations, and cultural events. A bi-monthly newsletter keeps
the congregation aware of all that is happening in and around our
community. We are a very warm and welcoming congregation, and we have full
religious privileges and
responsibilities for men and women.
