Holy Blossom Temple, established in 1856, is one of the oldest
synagogues in Canada. It has been affiliated with the Reform
movement since 1920 and is the largest Reform congregation in the
country.
With such an extensive and diverse membership, Holy Blossom is many
things to many people. But our basic purpose is to be a vibrant
centre of Jewish life. To achieve that goal we strive to uphold the
three fundamental principles of Judaism: study (Torah),
worship (avodah), and good deeds (gemilut hasadim).
As Reform Jews, we are an integral part of the
Canadian Council for Reform
Judaism (CCRJ), the
Union for Reform Judaism (URJ)
and the World Union for Progressive
Judaism (WUPJ). We actively recognize our responsibility
to deal with issues that concern both the Jewish as well as general
community through our affiliation with Jewish and non-Jewish
organizations in Canada.
- While our tradition provides us with a rich heritage,
embracing new congregants ensures that we will be here for
future generations. You and your family, as prospective members,
are important to us: You are our future.
Temple membership offers you the opportunity to be part of a
vibrant, committed community of Jews a community engaged in a
continuous, open-minded process of religious exploration. As a
member you can participate in regular worship services with others.
From preschool to confirmation, your children can acquire the skills
and education they need to live as Jews in the modern world. The
adult members of your family can take advantage of many stimulating
lectures and educational programs on Jewish themes. As a Temple
member, you also have the chance to make a difference, both within
the congregation and community at large. Share your skills with
others as a volunteer on one of our many committees and connect with
the people who make Holy Blossom the warm and caring place that it
is.
