Stained Glass Windows

Our beautiful Ascalon stained-glass windows were installed in 2004 and make our building seem even more like a colorful Jewish home than before. On a sunny morning, a spectrum of colors streams into the sanctuary from above, reminding us of the rich history they portray. And the windows above our main entrance symbolize what we value most -- Jewish Community and Jewish Worship -- even as you enter.

Dedicate a Window

To help support our community, members can dedicate a window and have your name(s) added to the tasteful dedicatory wall display in the synagogue lobby (see larger photo.)

These beautiful windows may be dedicated by an individual or a family or group of friends. The 27 windowpanes for the sanctuary are available for dedication for $18,000 each and one of the larger windows above our main entrance doors is available for dedication for $36,000.

To find out which windows are still available and discuss a payment plan, please contact office@bethemeth.org. (Please note that due to space limitations on the dedicatory wall display, limits may be placed on the amount of text beneath the image of your window.)
