About

Temple Beth Or (TBO) is committed to fostering a vibrant, diverse, spiritual community through life long education, rituals to mark life’s passages, acts of loving kindness and tikkun olam.  TBO now counts about 500 families as members, hosts a vibrant and inclusive religious school and one of Raleigh’s most respected early learning centers. Founded in 1912, TBO continues an unbroken tradition of living up to its name – House of Light. While we are surely more progressive in thought and practice than all those years ago, our basic beliefs have not changed.  We make it a priority to create a welcoming, intimate atmosphere because we cherish each and every congregant as an important part of our temple family. TBO is located at 5315 Creedmoor Road in Raleigh, NC.  

Learning

Our educational programs are first-class, with an early childhood education center onsite, one of the finest fully inclusive religious schools in our city, and a robust adult education program. Our goal is to provide for a lifetime of Jewish learning. 

Prayer & Worship

Our clergy team, Rabbi Dinner and Zemer Lexie, offer a dynamic blend of worship opportunities that span from the small and intimate to Shabbat Alive services featuring a full band.
