Beth Tzedec Congregation, Conservative synagogue in Forest Hill, Toronto, Canada
Beth Tzedec Congregation stands in a modern building designed by Peter Dickinson in Forest Hill, Toronto. Large windows flood the interior with daylight and create bright, open spaces for worship and gatherings.
The congregation formed in 1955 from the merger of Goel Tzedec and Beth Hamidrash Hagadol Chevra Tehillim, two established Toronto Jewish communities. This union brought together different traditions and created a stronger religious community.
The name Beth Tzedec means 'House of Righteousness' and reflects the community's commitment to justice. Today, members gather here for prayer, religious celebrations, and social events that shape Jewish life in the city.
Visitors can join daily prayer services held in the Hendeles Chapel, with many services also available online. This allows flexible participation whether you are visiting in person or joining remotely.
The congregation conducted Canada's first bat mitzvah ceremony in 1950, pioneering gender equality in religious rituals. This milestone was a significant moment in the country's Jewish history and reflected the community's commitment to inclusion.
