Congregation B'nai Tikvah

I have been a member of Congregation B'nai Tikvah for over ten years. It is a warm, Hamish synagogue where men and women are treated equally and people are both welcomed and encouraged to get involved. The staff and clergy will do everything to make you feel welcome. The synagogue is very flexible and evolving. They are willing to work with anyone regardless of how Jewish you want to be. And the cost is the lowest on the North Shore! The Hebrew School has undergone several positive changes in the past couple of years. The curriculum has been updated to roll with the times. The children and their parents are very happy. B'nai Tikvah has helped to instill values that are important to Jewish youth in the 21st century. As for me, I have been able to get involved in the men’s club. The club is growing and constantly doing new and relevant programming. If you are looking for a synagogue where you are not judged but accepted, if you are looking for a synagogue where your children are prepared for their Bar and Bat Mitzvahs and are afforded an excellent education, if you are looking for a synagogue which runs a youth program that is both fun and instills important values in your children, and if you are looking for a synagogue that exudes warmth, then Congregation B'nai Tikvah is certainly the synagogue that you should belong to. My family is very proud to be members and will for years to come.

My family has been members of B'nai Tikvah for over 21 years. The adult education programming is terrific. Conversational Hebrew, Lore in the Loop & Suburbs (Torah/Jewish wisdom discussions), and movie nights are but a few offerings. My wife enjoys the sisterhood's book club that meets in different member's homes on a monthly basis. If I had to sum up the most important aspect of the shul, it would be the warmth of our community.

I’ve been a member at B’Nai Tikvah Synagogue for the past 5 years. I feel that I’ve been a part of a large family. The members are warm and inviting. Many of my friends have even joined, and our kids are part of the religious school. The synagogue constantly has speaking events, social activities and lots of opportunities for learning, both for my kids and my adult friends. I’m truly proud to be a member here.

Great synagogue welcomes everyone and has plenty of room

I am always welcomed with a warm greeting and a smile. A very comforting community. My work and involvement is appreciated here.
