As of November 14, 2020, due to San Diego being in California's "purple tier," all services have moved outside for a minimum of 3 weeks.

We are no longer requiring pre-registration for in-person minyanim. However, masks are required and everyone will be seated at least 6-feet apart. No one should attend if they have been out of the country within the last 14-days, recently been in close contact with anyone who has tested positive for COVID-19, nor if they have any of the following symptoms:

Fever or chills, Cough, Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, Fatigue, Muscle or body aches, Headache, New loss of taste or smell, Sore throat, Congestion or runny nose, Nausea or vomiting, Diarrhea.

By State and County orders, we are now allowed to hold services indoors with a maximum of 25% of capacity or 100 people; whichever is less. As such, our minyanim are being held in the Social Hall. Seating is available outside on the patio for those wishing to be outdoors, yet still be part of the minyan.

We recently brought the famed BJSD Tzedaka Box back to our in-person minyanim. If you'd like to contribute remotely. please click on the Tzedakah Box below to put your donation in the "pushke" digitally or CLICK HERE.

Our welcoming community, of some one hundred fifty plus families, consists of many Shomer Shabbos, Shomer Mitzvos families as well as those that are less observant. 

With many more participants in our religious, educational, cultural and social activities, we are proud to be "the Orthodox Synagogue for all Jews". We are a diverse community, welcoming of all religious backgrounds.

A few unique features of the synagogue are: a large Beit Medrash program; bi-weekly Lunch and Learn classes; a community Kelim and Women's mikvah; singles programs; lifecycle and family education; adult and youth enrichment programs; communal holiday gatherings, scholar in residence programs and daily programs for older adults, Monday through Friday.

Beth Jacob Congregation, a proud member synagogue of the Orthodox Union, is one of the premier outreach institutions in the county, offering Shabbat hospitality, ongoing chesed activities, and parallel Beginning and Learning Services.

We invite you to experience Beth Jacob and San Diego. We have an open door policy and pride ourselves on our warm and friendly atmosphere. Please visit our congregation and enjoy our site.

Beth Jacob has been serving San Diego's Jewish community since 1939 and looks forward to doing so for many years to come.
