Temple Tifereth Israel of Winthrop is an unaffiliated
Jewish congregation. We provide a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere for our congregants and visitors.
The Congregation is committed to preserving Jewish values and traditions.
The Temple is located just north of Boston and is adjacent to East Boston,
Logan Airport, Revere, and Chelsea. Winthrop has a population of approximately 20,000, is largely
residential and is a peninsula with the Atlantic Ocean to the East and Boston Harbor to the
West.
Public transportation provides convenient low cost access to Boston,
while road access to Boston, points west and south is provided by 3 tunnels below Boston Harbor.
Points north of Boston, including New Hampshire and Maine, are easily reached by highways adjacent
to Winthrop.

As we enter the second year of the Covid-19 pandemic, with its interruption of our Temple
services and the suspension of other Temple functions and social gatherings, it may help to remember what has gone on
before at our Temple, to trust that the year-long crisis will shortly be coming to an end and that we all will be able
to gather again at our house of worship and to once again enjoy the company of each other.
As Jews, we have collectively known many calamities throughout our existence, and with our faith
and the help of the Almighty, our people has survived all similar disasters. So too - with God’s help – the current crisis
will pass and we will shortly be able to get back to a more normal way of life.
As a reminder of friends and family and of days gone by at Temple Tifereth Israel in Winthrop,
here are a few pictures from out of the past. Do you remember?
