Welcoming Babies

Mazal Tov on the birth of your son or daughter!

If you’ve recently had a baby, and want to schedule a Bris or a Baby Naming, at Beth Tikvah Synagogue,
please contact our office at 416-221-3433.

Bris ("Brit Milah")

The Brit Milah ceremony that welcomes a baby boy into the covenant of the Jewish people can be held in the synagogue, or you may choose to have the ceremony at your home. The Brit Milah is held on the 8th day of life.

Baby Naming

Naming and blessing a Jewish girl is her first welcome into Jewish life. The naming usually takes place at Shabbat morning, evening services, or Monday or Thursday mornings within the first year of life.
