| | | | Creator: | Temple Beth Sholom | | | | Dates: | 1957-1962 | | | | Abstract: | Temple Beth Sholom was a Conservative congregation based in the Cleveland, Ohio, eastern suburbs. It was formed by Morris Kadis in 1957 under the spiritual leadership of Rabbi Pincus Goodblatt. Temple Beth Sholom had no permanent home for its first several years. Services were held in the chapel at Bellefaire until 1961 and in the theater of the Jewish Community Center. A member of the congregation built a portable ark to be used at services. In 1960, Temple Beth Sholom purchased twenty acres of land in Pepper Pike, Ohio, to build a synagogue. In 1962, the homeowners of Pepper Pike filed a lawsuit against Temple Beth Sholom in an effort to prevent the construction of the building. Rabbi Goodblatt left the congregation in 1963. As a result of these circumstances, the synagogue was never built. Temple Beth Sholom merged with Temple Beth Am of Cleveland Heights in 1966. The collection consists of correspondence, minutes, newsletters, and programs. | | | | Call #: | MS 5105 | | | | Extent: | 0.40 linear feet (1 container) | | | | Subjects: | Temple Beth Sholom. | Synagogues -- Ohio -- Cuyahoga County. | Conservative Judaism -- Ohio -- Cuyahoga County. | Synagogue bulletins -- Ohio -- Cuyahoga County. | Jews -- Ohio -- Cuyahoga County.
