Rabbi Weinblatt's Page

It is my pleasure to welcome you to Congregation B'nai Tzedek. We are a vibrant, unique and dynamic synagogue, which is proud of the wide variety of programs and activities we offer. Permeating the atmosphere is the warm feeling of community, evident at our worship services and in the ways that members help and care for each other in times of need. The educational programs we offer for both children and adults as well as our award winning youth groups, are all extremely popular and well attended.
We hope our website gives you some sense of the unique and special congregation we have tried to create.
Please visit us and consider joining us in creating a synagogue for the twenty-first century.
Shalom,
Rabbi Stuart Weinblatt
