IMPORTANT UPDATE
Dear B'nai Torah members and friends,

 The Orthodox Union of which we are a member, issued an advisory yesterday evening recommending that all Orthodox synagogues in North America, whether there are cases of COVD-19 in their community or not, should immediately close.

Therefore, B'nai Torah will have no services or classes until further notice. We advise all who receive this not to attend any other gatherings, religious or otherwise during this time.

Please remember that all classes continue to be offered on Facebook Live at the announced times on B'nai Torah's Facebook page.

The Rabbi, our administrator and Executive Board remain available by phone, text or email. 
​
Obviously, the Shabbaton for prospective members who we met at the OU Fair will be postponed to a later date.
Rabbi Yaffe encourages our members to reach out to him for any reason whatsoever, even if it is to discuss some Torah or just schmooze.

We pray to the Almighty that all remain healthy and that this crisis will pass swiftly.

  As a synagogue, Congregation B'nai Torah has its roots deep within our Jewish Community.  As indicated by our interlaced Megan Dovid logo, B'nai Torah was founded as an amalgamation of three of the original Orthodox synagogues in our community, Beth Israel, Kesser Israel, and Kodimah, and dates back to the Nineteenth Century.

We welcome all individuals interested in finding pride ourselves on our inclusiveness, and 

  After much discussion, the three synagogues, while unique in there own right, found that they actually had much common.  From there, the talks blossomed into one unified congregation, B'nai Torah.

In 2008, in order to keep up with the changing demographics, the Congregation purchased and renovated a new location, in the beautiful suburban community of Longmeadow, Massachusetts.  The location is ideally situated next to our communities Jewish Community Campus, which is home to our JCC, one of our area's Jewish pre-schools, as well as the offices of the Jewish Federation of Western Massachusetts.
