Our Yom Kippur Yizkor Memorial Service is a treasured opportunity to honor the legacies of our loved ones and support each other as we remember, reflect, and mourn together as a community.
 
An important part of that experience is our Book of Remembrance  and we want to offer our entire community the opportunity to view this year’s Book of Remembrance  as an enduring memorial for those who continue to guide and inspire us.

We hope that the Yizkor prayers found in this Book of Remembrance will bring you comfort. This book, honoring your loved ones, and our collective prayer as a community reminds us that wherever we choose to worship, we are never alone. We stand with you, holding you close and sending you love and peace.

Announcing the Next Step Toward the Future of Leo Baeck Temple
The next step toward the future of Leo Baeck Temple has been completed! On July 1, 2027, Rabbi Lisa Berney will take her place as LBT’s fourth senior rabbi, as our congregation embarks upon its 80th year.

The congregational meeting, attended by hundreds of LBT members on July 23, 2026, began with a personal statement by Rabbi Berney, followed by a question-and-answer session in which members asked thoughtful questions. The conversation that followed allowed LBT members to experience the many reasons our Seeking Our Sacred Partner Committee, our Executive Committee, and our Board of Trustees so enthusiastically brought forward the recommendation of Rabbi Berney to our membership.

In accordance with our bylaws and operating procedures, our community joined in broad and joyful affirmation to select Rabbi Lisa Berney as our next Senior Rabbi. The rest, as they say ... is the future.

From Tot Shabbat and holiday celebrations with our youngest learners, to Religious School for elementary through high school students, to opportunities for youth to informally gather to socialize and participate in tikkun olam activities in the community, Leo Baeck Temple has so much to offer our youth and their families.

Within our larger LBT community are smaller affinity groups that offer programming and special events specifically for the adults in our "mini" communities. These groups include: LBT Women, LBT Men, and Community of Engagement, each of which has unique opportunities to connect in more intimate settings. 

When the busy week comes to an end, join our special summer services—Shabbat Under the Stars at 7:30pm—and experience the gift of restoration, gratitude, and soulful self-exploration. Then,  on the second and fourth Saturday of every month at 9:30am our Shabbat Morning Minyan gathers  our clergy and members of the temple community to create an informal, musical, spiritual and intellectually stimulating Shabbat service.
