Beit Simcha finds temporary location in Catalina Foothills

Congregation Beit Simcha has an interim location on the Northeast corner of Skyline and Campbell, across from La Encantada Shopping Center. The address is 3001 E. Skyline Drive, Suite 117, and the first Shabbat service will be held there today at 6:30 p.m.

“We have confirmed Congregation Beit Simcha’s location for the next four to six months. It is a beautiful space that unexpectedly became available to us by good fortune and very good will,” says Rabbi Samuel Cohon, who adds that the search for a permanent sanctuary in the Northwest continues.

In January, adult course offerings will expand to include the Taste of Judaism series, a Hebrew Marathon,  Introduction to Judaism and adult Hebrew weekly classes, along with a new conversion group. A new Torah Tots class begins Sunday, Jan. 13.
