Welcome
to the website of B'nai Israel Synagogue, in Grand Forks, North
Dakota. We are a small but strong congregation open to Jews of all
types. Our congregation has about 40 members, made up of a number of
different families. We have services once or twice a month.
Our congregation is proud to host
student rabbis from the Cincinnati campus of Hebrew
Union College - Jewish Institute of Religion.
Each year, a new student uses B'nai Israel as a place to
learn, grow, and share as he or she develops the rabbinical craft.
As a congregation, we are committed to education and the growth of
the Jewish community.
We welcome every
Jewish denomination to our service. We have a balcony for those who
wish to worship separately from the rest of the congregation.
