Welcome to Temple Beth Shalom!
Services usually on 2nd and 4th Friday evenings of each month
Temple Beth Shalom is a dynamic congregation of about 100 families, under the leadership of Rabbi Michael Ross. Known as the Synagogue of the Western Reserve, we are a Reform Jewish congregation, affiliated with the national organizations of that movement.
Although the Temple has grown over the years, it endeavors to maintain a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Please come join us so we can share who we are today and our vision for the future.
The Temple is located in a beautiful, historic building at 50 Division Street in Hudson. Friday night services are held twice a month at 7:30 p.m., usually on the second and fourth Fridays of the month. For a schedule of services and other activities, see our Calendar page.

HANUKKAH SOCIAL ACTION PROJECT-HUDSON FOOD PANTRY
Roughly 3% of the total Hudson population within the Hudson City School District fall within Federal Poverty Guidelines or are experiencing major problems in their lives.
Temple Beth Shalom is collecting non-perishable foods to benefit The Hudson Food Pantry located inside Rejoice Lutheran Church, Hudson. Please bring your donations between Sunday, December 15 and Friday, December 20. Bins will be located in the Social Hall.
The Food Pantry accepts all non-perishable food items, as well as dish and laundry detergents and paper products such as toilet paper and paper towels. Following is a list of items requested: canned vegetables, canned fruit, soup, canned pasta, beans, beef stew, chicken & dumplings, macaroni & cheese, tomato products, jarred spaghetti sauce, boxed pasta, canned tuna and chicken, tuna, chicken and hamburger helper, rice, cereal and breakfast products, and peanut butter and jelly.
- They ask that donors check donated items for stale-date or expired “Best Used By” dates.
- They cannot accept dented cans or boxes or packages that have been opened.
- They also CANNOT accept any medicines, alcohol or other similar related drugs such as aspirin, Tylenol, cough medicines, cold & flu remedies, etc.
- They accept all monetary donations. 100% of all donated dollars go toward supplying food to those in need in the Hudson Community. For those wishing to donate checks, please make them out to either HCSA Food Pantry or Hudson Community Service Association with a note in the memo section that the amount is intended for the Food Pantry.
Our temple has a long tradition of gathering food donations during the High Holy Days. Our cash donations last fall for High Holy Days raised $2,000 which translates into 8,000 meals. This local project is a worthy addition to our social action efforts. Donating food is a way for us to make the world a better place – Tikkun Olam.
