Temple Beth-El is a Reform Jewish congregation established in South Bend, Indiana, in 1905. Since its founding more than 100 years ago, Temple Beth-El has remained a house of worship, a place of study, and a center of friendship. In conjunction with its affiliate organizations, the Temple Sisterhood and Temple Brotherhood, Temple offers diverse programs that bring the meaning of Judaism to its members and to the community at large. We invite you to explore our web pages to learn more about how Temple enhances the meaning and enjoyment of a Jewish life and enriches a Jewish home.
