Beth El is a community of Christian Zionists whose beliefs are based solely on the Old and New Testaments, without any additions or commentaries. The Beth El Community has a membership of several hundred members located around the world, with its central location in Zikhron Yaaqov, Israel. The members of the community view the people of Israel as the Chosen Nation of God and have thereby decided to live in Israel to show appreciation and gratitude to the Jewish people who share their roots of faith with them.

The Beth El Community members are located primarily in Zikhron Yaaqov and Binyamina. They also have small groups of families in various locations within a 120-km radius of Zichron Ya’acov, and these residents maintain the production plants/product branches where they are situated. The members of the community live with their families in private houses and work in the enterprises and farms that belong to the community to provide for their daily needs. They live a simple communal Kibbutz lifestyle of equality, leaning on principles of modesty and harmony, and living according to the Bible.

The founders of the Beth El Community in Israel were the Sisters Emma and Elsa Berger, who arrived in Israel in 1963 and settled to show support to the Jewish people. In the beginning, the members worked in agriculture solely for the supply of their own needs, but as a result of their desire to increase their contribution to the welfare of the Jewish people and the State of Israel, they established a plant in the late 1970s that manufactures NBC Filtration and Ventilation systems, as well as filters for clean-room environments.

In addition, the Beth El group has become active in other fields. They are involved in diverse domains, from natural food products, bakery products, down and feather products, to precision engineering, to name a few. This, in turn, is creating more employment opportunities in the local communities and supports economic growth in Israel.

The members of the Beth El Community have built and maintained good relationships with their neighbors in Zichron Ya’acov and Binyamina for more than 30 years. Their continued support reaches to many communities and charitable organizations within Israel.

A deep appreciation exists among the community members, who consider it a great privilege to be able to live in the Promised Land, to develop the land, to support the economy, and to simply seek to benefit the welfare of the Jewish nation.
