Welcome to our Website!

Temple Beth Tikvah is a full service Reform congregation founded more than 30 years ago. Presently, more than 320 families participate in our worship, educational, and social programs. We are conveniently located near I-95, in the heart of the New Haven – Old Saybrook shoreline of Connecticut.

We have developed contemporary traditions reflecting our times, and our very special shoreline ambiance. Since TBT would be the only synagogue within the area, its founders envisioned policies, rituals, and practices accommodating the diversity of Jews increasingly populating the shoreline.

TBT serves as the focus of Jewish Community life on the shoreline. We are proud of our extensive programming for Jews in all the stages of life. Our Nursery and Religious Schools enjoy substantial enrollments. Our worship experiences are traditional, creative, and intellectually stimulating.

We hope you will consider becoming an active member of our vibrant Jewish community.
