Bet Chaverim was founded in 1989 by a group of families in South King County, WA who wished to  facilitate a Jewish education for their children and to celebrate Shabbat and holidays together. Over the years the congregation has been served by a number of part-time rabbis and cantorial soloists.  We are currently seeking to hire a new part-time rabbi.  

The purpose of Bet Chaverim is to promote the enduring and fundamental principles of Judaism and to ensure the continuity of the Jewish people, in Israel and throughout the Diaspora; to enable its adherents to develop a relationship to God through warm and welcoming communal worship, study and assembly; and to apply the principles of Reform Judaism to the values and conduct of the individual, family, and the society in which we live.

The objectives of Bet Chaverim are to maintain a synagogue for communal worship and celebration of our Jewish traditions; to provide a religious education for the instruction of ourselves and our children; and to offer, when possible, opportunities to participate in additional activities consistent with our purpose. 

We have an elected board of directors who provide governance and adherence to the bylaws of our congregation. 

We are a small congregation but are seeking to grow!
