Welcome to KKBE!
Rooted deeply. Growing wisely. Cultivating community.
Founded in 1749, KKBE is one of the oldest congregations in America, and is known as the birthplace of American Reform Judaism. Our sanctuary is the oldest in continuous use for Jewish worship in America, but Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim (KKBE) is more than just a house of worship. We are a vibrant, inclusive and caring congregational family.
Upcoming Events
Join us on September 28 for our S’lichot Film, The Saint of Second Chances. S’lichot Services will follow in the Sanctuary. Register HERE.
Mike Veeck grew up in the shadow of his hustler father, Hall of Fame baseball owner Bill Veeck. The Veeck name became both legendary and notorious in professional baseball as they introduced the fun at ballparks giveaways, theme nights, fireworks, and more. But it all came to a screeching halt when Mike blew up his father's career. Exiled from the game he loved, the younger Veeck spent the next few decades clawing his way up from rock bottom, determined to redeem himself. After receiving distressing news, what started as a journey to reclaim the family legacy, became an opportunity to appreciate that family more fully. The Saint of Second Chances is wildly unexpected, full of heart, and keeps you laughing (and crying) through a comeback story unlike any other.
