A's VS The Royals
This is a fun time at the ball park with Beth Chaim and Jewish groups from around the Bay Area. The Brotherhood is subsidizing the ticket costs. Tickets are $25 each (normally $35) and include a pre-game nosh and a special Jewish Heritage Night souvenir (an A's knit cap). Parking is free! We are in section 127 (above the A's dugout), which are much better seats than last year. Come on out to the ball game! RSVP to This email address is being protected from spambots.

About Beth Chaim
Beth Chaim Congregation is Contra Costa County’s vital Jewish community, providing a vibrant, embracing, enriching environment for over 500 residents in the Tri-Valley.
We are a community that offers worship, celebration, youth education, community service, continuing adult education, and a portfolio of enriching events and programs.
But we are also more than merely a synagogue, and even more than a religious school and a center for life-cycle events. We are a community — one in which our members make a real difference, and one that in return makes a real difference in the lives of our members.
A Personal Welcome to Beth Chaim
The traditional words of welcome in the Jewish tradition are “Baruch Habah B’Shem Adonai” which is usually translated as, “Blessed Are You in the Name of God.” I prefer the translation, “It is a blessing that you have come, to make us all aware that it is through relationship that we are brought into the presence of God.” Our people have always known that one of the most vital spiritual avenues – ways we can experience the mystery that is God -- is through relationship.
