facilities
Temple Beth Hillel-Beth El is housed on an eight-acre property built in the early part of the 1900s and designed to meet the needs of our growing congregation over the last 50 years. Our Synagogue facility consists of the original mansion building, the Sanctuary building added in 1968, the school wing built in 1990, and the structure linking and expanding all the parts built in 2002.
