Temple Beth Sholom

Welcome!

Welcome to Temple Beth Sholom (TBS), your village in the East Bay. Located in San Leandro, California, we are an independent congregation dedicated to creating an inclusive, multi-generational community rooted in joyful Judaism, lifelong Jewish learning, Tikkun Olam, and climate action.

Join us for Chanukah 2025

What holds together the Maccabees and candles? What does miracle oil have to do with celebrating our right to be different? In this accessible session we will learn how Chanukah has evolved over time to incorporate many, sometimes contradictory, meanings.
