About B'nai Amoona
Congregation B’nai Amoona is a large, fully egalitarian Conservative Synagogue where spiritual experiences, educational opportunities and warm fellowship are the lifeblood of this Congregation. Spearheaded by our Klei Kodesh (clergy) and staff, we aim to create, plan, support and implement a myriad of exceptional programming for every age. Preschoolers to senior adults are experiencing spirituality, education and programming as never before.
B’nai Amoona strives to create a warm, friendly and spiritual atmosphere. Jews by birth and by choice as well as Interfaith couples are invited to affiliate as members and be a part of the B’nai Amoona Experience.
In addition, B’nai Amoona is the only Conservative Synagogue in St. Louis that maintains its own cemetery, located in University City.
