Shalom and welcome to Congregation Bat-Tzion, a community of Jews and Gentiles in One Body through Messiah Yeshua, the Son of God. We are a small and caring fellowship that gathers on Shabbat and Feast Days to worship Elohim, our Creator, and learn His ways. Bat-Tzion celebrates these occasions with joy in music, dance, prayer, and study of God’s Word, the Torah. Our personal and corporate studies aim to inspire us to follow His commandments for righteous living and to glorify Him. If you plan to visit us on Shabbat, we invite you to first get acquainted with us through this website, beginning with our About Us page.
We will be celebrating our Passover Seder in April.
