Shalom
and welcome to Beit Ha Torah. Beit Ha Torah is a
Messianic Synagogue that was formed to serve to
needs of the Messianic Community in Cecil County
and the surrounding areas. Formed in 1995, we originally
met in a home until we needed a larger building
more suited to our needs. In 2000 we moved to a
larger building on RT.40 in Elkton, which is where
we are still located today.
Beit Ha Torah is dedicated to
community and education. We firmly believe that
without a strong community that is educated and
actively pursuing Torah we are not fulfilling G-d’s
call on our lives and the lives of the Jewish people.
With this in mind we make sure that there are many
opportunities for us to come together as a community
and have fellowship. We meet every Shabbat, Rosh
Chodesh (New Moon) and of course all of the Festivals.
We also have many activities each year that are
designed to either help us learn or practice our
faith, such as trips to the Holocaust Museum in
Washington DC or practicing Tzedakah by taking food
to those less fortunate. We also have times just
for fun, such as trips to Hershey Park, camping
trips and other things as well.
Beit Ha Torah also serves as
a place of education for our community and local
churches in our area. We have a variety of Adult
Education classes throughout the year that are designed
to challenge our community to make their faith active.
The classes also are used to help those in the church
gain a better understanding of the Jewish People
and also of their faith. We offer Hebrew classes
on a variety of levels, classes on Judaism, classes
on Torah and Mitzvot and others.
For those interested in home
schooling their children, Beit ha Torah has an umbrella
school within the State of Maryland. We did this
so that you as parents would not have to register
with a church to home school your children. The
response for the program has been very encouraging
and is available for all members.
Beit Ha Torah also has a sisterhood
which without their help many of the fundraisers
and other activities would not get off the ground.
Thank You Ladies!!
