Unique to the Cincinnati area, and rarely found anywhere in the United States,
the collaboration between Conservative Congregation B’nai Tzedek and Reform
Congregation Beit Chaverim serves to benefit the members of both congregations.
Each congregation maintains its own religious identity with its own religious
services, to which members of the other congregation as well as the public are
always welcome. Because the congregations are housed in the same building this
is a benefit especially valued by blended families and couples from differing
Jewish backgrounds. Many social and educational functions are sponsored by the
joint congregations and are stronger for the participation of members of both
congregations, as well as the public. The openness shown by each congregation
towards the other is a unique characteristic of the collaboration between B’nai
Tzedek and Beit Chaverim, and extends to the Jewish community at large which is
always welcome to our services and other events. |

As we approach the month of Elul, not only do we consider our personal lives and
our accomplishments, but many at BTZ and BC set aside time to organize and plan
the services during the High Holy Days and the fall festivals. If you have any
questions or would like to receive a booklet describing all of the events or
prayer service times, please call the office, 984-3393, or email us,
bnaitzedek@fuse.net and we will do our
best to contact you.
Support Jewish Family Services and the Freestore Foodbank. There are baskets in
the lobby to hold any donations you choose to bring in for these agencies who
help those in need year round.
TUESDAY EVENINGS 7-8:30
TORAH ON
TUESDAYS
Each week Candy Kwiatek leads a
group discussion on verses from the Torah. Currently, the book of Leviticus is
being read. It is an informal group analyzing each verse. Even if you have never
attended you may be surprised at how much you can learn and enjoy at the same
time. Studying Torah is a mitzvah!
This is a year-round class. Please call the BTZ office to check on weekly
sessions.
