Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:For Шаблон:Use Canadian English Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox religious building Congregation Beth Tikvah Ahavat Shalom Nusach Hoari (Шаблон:Lang-he), also known simply as Beth Tikvah (Шаблон:Lang-he, Шаблон:Trans 'House of Hope'), is a Modern Orthodox synagogue in Dollard-des-Ormeaux, Quebec, Canada.

History

Beth Tikvah was founded in 1964 by a group of about 20 young families who were considered pioneers of Jewish life in the West Island.[1] Rabbi Mordecai Zeitz arrived at the invitation of local families, and with support from a synagogue-planting subsidy program of Yeshiva University.[2]

A house was purchased which accommodated the congregation and Hebrew school until the fall of 1968, when a congregation that would soon reach 300 families moved into a new multi-purpose auditorium on the present site.

Beth Tikvah has run a supplementary school, Hebrew Academy, since the synagogue's establishment.[3] The synagogue opened a full-time elementary day school, Hebrew Foundation School (Шаблон:Lang-he), in the fall of 1970.

Since 2004, the synagogue has housed an eighteenth-century torah scroll from Rokycany, Bohemia, originally secured by the Czech Memorial Scrolls Centre in 1964.[4] In August 2007, Beth Tikvah merged with Congregation Ahavat Shalom Nusach Hoari, formed in 1910 (Nusach Hoari) and 1915 (Ahavat Shalom–Anshei Galicia).[5]
