Beth El Through the Years


Temple Beth El is a Conservative congregation.

Over 100 years ago, a group of Jewish people met to establish a synagogue to meet the needs of the then tiny Patchogue Jewish community. A synagogue was built at the corner of Oak Street and Jayne Avenue, which, to this day, remains the center of Jewish life in this area. When originally built, it had a small balcony for the women and was heated by a large, cantankerous, pot-bellied stove.

In 1931, the community realized that it had outgrown its quarters and plans were formulated to build a larger synagogue. The new structure was completed in 1933 and dedicated by the Lieutenant Governor of New York State, the Honorable Herbert H. Lehman. The mortgage was burned in 1944.

A new addition to our temple was built in 1968. It includes a modern sanctuary and a social hall, complete with bridal room and facilities for a caterer. Today with our membership of about 300 families, we are successfully meeting the needs of our Jewish community.
