About BMH-BJ
Beth haMedrosh Hagagdol – Beth Joseph (BMH-BJ) Congregation is a modern orthodox synagogue located in Denver, Colorado which currently serves 650 families. It is the second oldest synagogue in Denver and was founded around the same time as the Jewish Consumptives’ Relief Society. The Jewish Consumptives’ Relief Society brought many Jewish patients from around the country who would settle in Denver.
Beth haMedrosh Hagadol (BMH) was founded in 1897 while Beth Joseph (BJ) was founded in 1922. BMH served as a conservative synagogue until the mid 1970s when the congregation decided to become a traditional facility. BJ was founded as a traditional-orthodox synagogue. BMH and BJ merged in 1996.
The BMH-BJ Congregation is the last remaining orthodox synagogue in the county recognized by the Orthodox Union to offer a mixed-seating service in the main sanctuary on Saturday mornings while offering only separate men/women 
seating during weekday services. While the main sanctuary offers mixed-seating, the service is still traditional. BMH-BJ has been part of the orthodox Union (OU) since the 1970s and maintains the laws and traditions set forth by the governing body of the OU.
BMH-BJ programming includes: two daily services on a weekly basis, two services on Saturday morning, holiday, adult education, a weekly religious school, cultural events, four youth groups and life cycle celebrations. The congregation hosts events seven days a week and opens the doors for outside groups to use the facilities.
