OUR MISSION

Temple Beth Torah provides our members a community to enjoy religious, cultural, educational, and celebratory aspects of Jewish life, in an egalitarian and welcoming environment. We foster a community where Jewish people, their families, Jews-by-choice, and all Jew-ish people feel comfortable and supported with their diverse beliefs and Jewish heritages.

OUR VALUES

Kehillah (Community):  We are dedicated to providing our members with a sense of belonging, both within TBT and the Jewish community at large. From generation to generation ,(לדור ודור) we foster relationships that allow us to thrive while we strengthen and grow our bonds.

Limud (Learning):  Learning is Mitzvah. We believe education can take many forms which all contribute to a lifetime of Jewish learning. At TBT, we introduce our members to the joys of learning at all ages. From tots to B-Mitzvah and Confirmation, and adult programs, we provide our members many ways to continue their spiritual and Jewish growth and knowledge throughout their lives.

Tefillah (Prayer):  Communal prayer is a cornerstone of our community. By joining our voices and hearts together, we connect more deeply to each other and to God. Throughout our observances and events, TBT creates opportunities for spiritual growth and prayer that fosters each congregant’s connection to Judaism.

Tikkun Olam (Repairing the World):  As a community we cherish opportunities to give back and strongly encourage our members to do the same. We believe in social justice and action and bettering the lives of all people. Through volunteering, at TBT and throughout our Northern Virginia communities, we aim to create a better world.
