1Title:  Shaarey Tikvah Congregation Records, Series III     
 Creator:  Congregation Shaarey Tikvah 
 Dates:  1928-2021 
 Abstract:  Shaarey Tikvah Congregation was founded in 1940 in Cleveland, Ohio, by a group of German Jewish refugees. In its first ten years, the congregation met in four different buildings in Cleveland. In 1950, the congregation purchased the Heights Presbyterian Church in Cleveland Heights, Ohio, and changed its name to Mayfield Temple. In 1970, the congregation merged with Hillcrest Synagogue B'nai Israel and moved to its building in Mayfield Heights, Ohio. The merged congregation was called Mayfield Hillcrest Synagogue, and had the Hebrew name Shaarey Tikvah - B'nai Israel. In 1986, the congregation moved to Beachwood, Ohio. It became the first conservative congregation in Beachwood and changed its name back to Shaarey Tikvah, which means "gates of hope." Shaarey Tikvah was associated with the Conservative movement in 1957. Rabbis who served the congregation were Hans Zucker, 1940-1942; Manfred Strauss, 1942-1946; Enoch H. Kronheim, 1946-1957; Jacob Shtull, 1958-1992; Gary Robuck, 1992-2003; Edward C. Bernstein, 2003-2011, David Kosak, 2011-2015, and Eddie Sukol (in an interim capacity). Rabbi Scott Roland is the current rabbi in 2022; he has served since 2016. The collection consists of albums, articles, blueprints, bulletins, cemetery certificates, correspondence, directories, flyers, membership lists, minutes, pamphlets, programs, reports, and speech texts.
