Congregation B'nai Israel, fondly known as the "the Temple", is located in Monroe, Louisiana which is on the banks of the Ouachita River and Bayou DeSiard.
The Temple is truly a congregation of volunteers, who put in countless hours because of their love for Judaism and their desire for a strong Jewish community, committed to the values and conduct of the individual, the family and the society in which we live. As members of the URJ, we extend a warm welcome to all who are seeking a Jewish community built on the fundamental and enduring principles of Reform Judaism. Shabbat services are held every Friday evening at 6 pm. Services are lay led except when our Rabbi is here once a month. All are welcome to worship with us. |
Masks are now optional when in the building.
For those unable or uncomfortable coming to the Temple, the service will be streamed live through our website (see below). If you have any questions, please call 318-387-0730 or leave an email at [email protected].
