Temple Beth David 
Westwood, Massachusetts

We invite you to join our community of approximately 230 families from more than 25 towns in prayer, study, to socialize and learn. We offer activities and opportunities for all age groups and levels of participation.

Our Reform congregation is a caring, active, diverse and inclusive community that explores and experiences all aspects of Jewish life.

We welcome families of all shapes and sizes, singles and couples, mature and young, LGBTQ, interfaith, Jews by choice, and those seeking to learn more about Judaism.

We embrace all people and extend kavod – honor to people with different needs and abilities.

Our building may be closed. But our community is open…

We remain connected to one another, engaged in Jewish life and learning, and prepared to help one another in this time of need.

Services, classes and other programs are continuing online. We encourage you to each out to us with any needs that you have.  Our rabbis and administrative staff are working remotely.  If you have urgent pastoral needs, call the temple at 781-769-5270 and follow the instructions on the voicemail.
