Scope & content
(Traduction à venir) Historic outline The 50th anniversary booklet of 1940 suggests that the congregation recognized its date of origin as being around 1890. According to this account, the Beth Yehuda originated with a small congregation of Hasidic followers of the Bohusher rabbi. They named the congregation Ohel Moshe after the Bohusher rabbi’s son. Worshipping at first in the home of Abraham Lang, the fledgling congregation rented space on Cadieux Street in 1902. It was with the purchase of a former theatre at 16 Lagauchetiere East, that the congregation was renamed Beth Yehuda. It was with great pride that the congregation celebrated the construction of an architecturally significant synagogue in 1923 at 210 Duluth East. Despite considerable and ongoing financial challenges, the congregation remained at that location until the late-fifties when it joined other immigrant congregations in forming the amalgamated Shomrim Laboker, Beth Yehuda, Shaare Tefillah, Beth Hamedrash Hagadol Tifereth Israel in the emerging Jewish neighbourhood of Snowdon at 6410 Westbury.
