Stained Glass Windows

Our beautiful stained-glass windows by Israeli stained glass artist David Ascalon were installed in 2004. On a sunny morning, a spectrum of colors streams into the sanctuary from above, reminding us of the rich history they portray. The two windows above our main entrance symbolize what we value most -- Jewish Community and Jewish Worship -- as you enter our building.

Dedicate a Window

These beautiful windows may be dedicated by an individual or a group of family or friends. Names of those who have done so are inscribed on the dedicatory wall display in the synagogue lobby in appreciation for their support.

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.)
