We attended a Bat Mitzvah for the first time and as non-Jews we felt very welcomed and guided through the process. It was a beautiful, personal service and we would gladly come back if invited. Happy to see clear and affirming elements supporting LGBTQ+ people. They even provided yamakas for my sons to wear during the service so we could be included and respectful.

Historically clickish, unwelcoming to new members, the disabled, and elderly. There are some nice people, however, the leadership plays favorites, and caters to the few donors who keep the place going. Not a warm welcoming place to worship or fellowship. The community they cater to are not inclusive, but prefer being around the people who share their alternate lifestyle, and certainly there is no room for people who disagree. A “1” out of “10”. I recommend looking for another place to congregate.

I like it because the people are really friendly; I find services very spiritual; and the Cantor has a fabulous voice. The senior Rabbi Lisa Edwards has a wonderful, spiritual way with words which help people feel better. Both Rabbis are wonderful teachers and their love of Judaism shines through whatever they are saying. I love hearing Cantor Juval Porat and singing with the congregation. Everyone is welcome there.

THE BEST LGBTQ Temple in the world. None can beat BCC, the oldest and the best.

Very haimisch, egalitarian, inviting synagogue. Beautiful building inside. Lovely members and rabbis.
