Kahal B'raira, a congregation of Secular Humanistic Jews, has been meeting in the Boston area since 1975. We meet for services, discussion, culture, Sunday school, teen/youth groups, and other events. Our Sunday school includes pre-kindergarten through eighth grade classes with additional Hebrew and Bar/Bat Mitzvah programming. We also hold Sabbath services on the first Friday of each month. We are affiliated with the national Society for Humanistic Judaism. Humanistic Judaism embraces a philosophy that combines rational thinking with a celebration of Judaic culture and identity. Humanistic Jews value their Jewish identity and the aspects of Jewish culture that offer a genuine expression of their contemporary way of life. Kahal B'raira welcomes anyone who identifies with our culture and values. Our community is enriched by the contributions of our diverse membership. We celebrate Jewish holidays and life cycle events with inspirational ceremonies that draw upon, but seek to go beyond, traditional literature. In general the Adult Meetings (which take place during Sunday School hours), consist of: a brief business meeting; schmooze time; a spiritual service; and a feature program. Our feature programs, a hallmark of our congregation, are engaging and thought provoking.
