About Us

The Beth Israel Beth Aaron Congregation has been serving the Jewish community of Cote St. Luc for over 50 years. We are an orthodox congregation that embraces deep engagement with Jewish life, learning, and observance, while at the same time, through word and deed, affirms the Jewish imperative of involvement with the broader society. Our congregation emphasizes the warmth and excitement of Jewish life and the centrality of family in ensuring a vibrant and relevant Jewish future. We aspire to create an atmosphere where all Jews are welcome and can find avenues to strengthen their Jewish lives.

 

We are deeply committed to the State of Israel and affirm the obligation on all Jews to play their role in securing its security and its standing in the international community. Our synagogue has become a central address for Jewish activism in defense of Israel and the rights of Jews everywhere.

 

OUR SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP:

His deep commitment to the synagogue members and his role as a communal leader is source of great pride to the congregation.
