About Us

Temple B’rith Shalom is a small, egalitarian Reform congregation that welcomes everyone interested in Judaism. Interfaith families and LBGTQ members are welcome.

As the oldest congregation in the Quad City area, we seek to build bridges with the greater Prescott community and welcome all who are interested in learning about Judaism and seeking their Jewish home.

Temple B’rith Shalom's members come from the full spectrum of Jewish practice and belief. Most of the members have come to Prescott from elsewhere in Arizona and the greater United States and appreciate the fellowship and friendships found in a small Jewish community.

Our spiritual leader is Rabbi Julie Kozlow, who joined the congregation Nov. 1, 2019. Rabbi Kozlow would love to meet you! Please call the temple office to set up an appointment. 

Information about the congregation's lay leadership is available here. 

Worship

Each Friday, Shabbat begins with an oneg at 5:45 p.m., followed by services from 6-7 p.m. 

Morning worship begins at 10 a.m. in the sanctuary and includes a Torah service and study.

Learning

The goal of Temple Brith Shalom's Religious School is to make passionate Jewish life an integral part of our Bnai Israel families' experience of Judaism. School meets Sunday mornings during the school year. Arlene Brownie and Blanch Jacobs lead the school and each session includes teaching with Rabbi Kozlow. 

There is a wide variety of learning opportunities for adults. Rabbi Kozlow has started a 10-session  lunch-and-learn program, the of many educational opportunities she has planned for the congregation. In addition, Temple  B'rith Shalom is fortunate to have members who have expertise in various aspects of Judaism and teach in the congregation. See the adult learning page for more information.
