New date, same unforgettable night! ✨ After a weather-related reschedule, The Great American Songbook: Rabbi Alexander’s Crystal Anniversary Soirée is back on the calendar—and you won’t want to miss it.
Join us on Saturday, May 16 from 7:00–10:00 PM at the Crystal Ballroom in the Charleston Marriott (170 Lockwood Drive) for an evening of music, celebration, and community. Enjoy a stunning concert featuring the sounds of the Great American Songbook—highlighting legendary Jewish composers like Gershwin, Berlin, Sondheim, and Bernstein—performed by members of the Charleston Symphony Orchestra and talented local vocalists.
This special night honors Rabbi Stephanie Alexander’s 15 years of visionary leadership at KKBE, complete with a festive dessert reception (and cash bar) following the performance.
🎟️ Tickets start at $72, with sponsorship opportunities still available at kkbe.org
Celebrate. Support. Sing along.
Reserve your spot today and be part of a night to remember!
Join us for KKBE’s Annual Congregational Meeting on Sunday, May 3 at 11:00 AM in the Sanctuary. Each year, our congregation gathers to do something remarkable: govern ourselves. Every member has an equal seat at the table, and your presence truly matters.
Come celebrate the accomplishments of the past year, hear updates from lay and professional leadership, and help set the course for the year ahead. Members will vote on our Operating and Capital Budgets, elect new trustees, and reflect on KKBE’s impact in our community.
The meeting will also be available via livestream, though members must be present in person to vote.
Following the meeting, join us for a Congregational Picnic in the courtyard beginning at 12:00 PM. We hope to see you there!
Put your values into action at KKBE’s annual Mitzvah Day 💙
Join us for a meaningful day of service as our community comes together to repair the world—one project at a time. This year, we’ll be packaging meals with @mealsofhope_ to support our neighbors through the @lcfoodbank, helping address food insecurity right here at home.
We’re also proud to partner with Charleston Area Justice Ministry (CAJM). As a founding member, KKBE is part of their community-wide efforts to tackle systemic issues, and this year, that includes a major focus on food insecurity.
Mitzvah Day 2026 is generously funded by the KKBE Sisterhood, with lunch provided by the KKBE Brotherhood. Come on your own or bring family and friends—every set of hands makes a difference.

Please join us as Isabel Gregg, daughter of Matt Gregg & Taylor High, is called to the Torah as a Bat Mitzvah on Saturday, April 25 at 10:00am at the Shabbat Morning Service.
Isabel is a seventh grader at the School of the Arts majoring in visual art. This year she was awarded a gold key, silver key, and honorable mention for her artwork at the Georgia and South Carolina Lowcountry Scholastic Art Awards. She also had a piece selected for the Art Fields Jr. contest in Lake City, SC. Isabel is a dedicated swimmer on multiple teams throughout the year. Most recently she competed with the Academic Magnet High School girls swim team. She also enjoys reading, music, games, and baking desserts.
For her mitzvah project, she combined her passion for making things with her love of cats. She has been making fleece cat beds to donate to local animal shelters so that cats staying there have cozy spots to nap.
Register in advance for the service at kkbe.org.
