Congregation Bet Ha’am is a welcoming Reform Jewish community providing vision, voice, and opportunity for connecting to, practicing, and sustaining Judaism.

Bet Ha’am, House of the People, respects and celebrates the divine spark in each individual.

Please join us for our Annual Meeting of the Congregation on June 16 at 6:30 PM. This an opportunity for you to hear from lay leadership, to learn about what is going on in your congregation. Don’t worry: there will be no reading of committee reports or requests for money. You will get information about our finances, elect new board members, and have an opportunity to ask questions. We will be presenting our third annual Jane Snerson Distinguished Service Award, for exemplary volunteer service to the congregation. The recipient is integral to our organization and has worked countless hours for many years. But this person works primarily behind the scenes and does not seek attention. Come find out who this treasured member is!

Watch for an email the week before the meeting which will include:

• How to register and be counted. We need a quorum of congregants in order for the election to be valid, so please register and attend.
• The slate of nominees to the board.
• Instructions for voting and asking questions.

Chicken Raising Zoom Group
Bet Ha'am's chicken enthusiasts met on Zoom for the first time last week. Topics of discussion included eggs, coops, ducks, meat, resources, and predators. All chicken enthusiasts are welcome. Please contact the office if you would like more information.

Hope and Heartbreak
An Interfaith Solstice Gathering During the Dual Pandemics of COVID-19 and Racism
Saturday, June 20, 5:00 PM
via Zoom and Facebook Live 
On the longest day of the year, as we welcome more light and greet the summer, Rabbi Saks will join with Portland clergy to pause and invite introspection, prayer, and reflection on the dual pandemics confronting all of us: COVID-19 and systemic racism. 
As we move through this global pandemic, the coronavirus demands continued attention to public health guidelines that disrupt nearly every aspect of our lives and cause widespread suffering. We pray for one another and we call one another to make socially responsible choices that prioritize the common good. 
And as we move through a time of national reckoning, we acknowledge and confess the ways in which racial violence has been a defining sin of our country from the very beginning. We pray for guidance and direction, and we call upon all of us, as a society, to prayerfully confront the evils of white supremacy, police brutality, and institutionalized oppression. 
Hope and Heartbreak. Dual Pandemics. Both of these invite our collective, spiritually grounded response. Please join Portland area clergy and spiritual leaders for this interfaith gathering — via Zoom at the link below, or via Facebook Live on the Maine Council of Churches Facebook page — for a time of reflection and prayer.
