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.  We also provide a community for our Western Wake County members with our TBO West program.

Learning

Our educational programs are first-class, with an early learning 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

With two rabbis and a director of Jewish music, we offer a dynamic blend of worship opportunities that span from the small and intimate to Shabbat Alive services featuring a full band.
