Shabbat Celebration Services
Connect. Pray. Unwind.
Re-center yourself in the spiritual heart of our congregation.
It is so much more than services. Leave the frenzy of the week behind, connect with the Infinite, and plug into something both ancient and cutting edge, traditional and modern. Take a deep breath and join us as we sing ourselves into a place of awe, gratitude, joy and Jewish inspiration and learning.

Our Czech Memorial Torah Scroll
Congregation Beit Simcha is proud that our first Torah scroll is one of the famed Czech Memorial Scrolls, received from the Czech Memorial Scrolls Trust located at Westminster Synagogue in London. The regular use of this scroll brings back to life a Jewish community that is gone, and connects us to our history and heritage in profound and powerful ways.
