Our Roots...
The BAYT Congregation was established in 1981 by Joe Tanenbaum z"l and Rabbi Baruch Taub who is now our Rabbi Emeritus.
Originally comprised of 15 families who met in Rabbi Taub's home, the BAYT has grown to its current membership of over 800 families. On Shabbos and Yom Tov, our multiple minyanim range from heimish to formal, from yeshivish to beginners.
The love and support of Eretz Yisrael play an integral role in all of our initiatives. The BAYT's programs rally the synagogue's membership as well as both the larger Thornhill and Toronto Jewish communities behind the State of Israel with speakers, discussion groups, and special events. In addition, a number of BAYT projects reach out directly to Jews in Israel.
Whatever path BAYT members follow in Jewish life, we all seek to fulfill our spiritual and social needs in a traditional Orthodox environment. Whether it is through services, study groups, lectures, special events, holiday celebrations, or youth activities, the BAYT provides daily opportunities to meet new people, make friends, grow in Torah and experience the richness of Jewish traditions within a thriving, dynamic community.
Make our BAYT your home!
