Welcome to Temple Beth Shira A Close-Knit Community, Without the Walls
Whether you seek meaningful prayer, thoughtful learning, or simply a place to feel at home, Temple Beth Shira welcomes you. Our close-knit, chavurah-style community puts people first—everybody knows your name.
We create sacred space wherever we gather—filled with spirit, music, and connection. Without a building to maintain, our dues stay low and there’s never a building fund.
Twice a month, we come together for spirited Shabbat services—once with our joyful temple band and visual prayer experience, and once in a traditional sanctuary setting. Together, we explore Torah, share ideas, enjoy music, and support one another through life’s seasons.
The South County Civic Center Service is preceded by a dinner at 6:30. Advance reservation and payment is required: members $25 and non-members $36.

Tiny points of light scattered everywhere — across […]
