Congregation Beth Aaron, a Union for Reform Judaism affiliated community, was founded in 1938 and consists currently of 55 households. It participates in the Montana Association of Jewish Communities, a umbrella organization representing the nine Jewish groups in the "Big Sky Country." CBA is located at the eastern foot of the northern Rocky Mountains of the United States in Billings, Montana, originally a railroad town incorporated in 1882 and home to 104,000 people.
Billings is the principle city of the largest metropolitan area in that State and the largest city between Denver, Colorado and Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and between Sioux Falls, South Dakota and Spokane, Washington. The region is known for ranching, agriculture, coal reserves, energy production, outdoor recreation, and the nearby Yellowstone National Park.
Congregation Beth Aaron is served through much of the year by the visiting Student-Rabbi Program of Hebrew Union College, and otherwise by a very diverse much-experienced group of lay leaders and educators. It offers Shabbat and most Holy Days services, a weekly religious school, adult education, and resources for all Jewish life-cyle events.

Dear Motti,
I wanted to let you know that the girls (Yael and Bracha) were amazing madrichot and our camp was an incredible success! They were really excellent and had well thought out programs and games.
We are deeply appreciative of all your efforts.
Thank you from us all at Ahavath Beth Israel,
Kol Tuv,
Abi
