BZUSY stands for B'nai Zion United Synagogue Youth. It is the El Paso chapter of USY, a Jewish Conservative Youth Group. We have programs concerning Israel, Judaism, Social Action, and Tikun Olam. BZUSY,our chapter of United Synagogue Youth, involves ninth through twelfth grade students in religious social, and community service activities. Members take part in religious and national USY conventions, and are encouraged to take part in USY’s Israel programs. Scholarships are also available for such programs.

Kadima, our junior youth group is for sixth through eighth graders. We offer middle school students a chance to interact socially and religiously prior to becoming members of USY. All of our youth programming is supported by the synagogue’s Youth Commission.

Our Mission

Congregation B’nai Zion is a sacred community whose mission is to add Jewish value to the lives of our members engaging God, Torah and Israel as understood and taught by the Conservative Movement.

To accomplish our mission, B’nai Zion establishes educational, cultural, religious, social, and recreational activities that further the cause and objectives of Conservative Judaism. These include sustaining a culture of lifelong Jewish learning and encouraging the next generation of leaders through education and vibrant programing that inspire a sense of Jewish identity and Jewish community. To this end, Congregation B'nai Zion engages children, young adults, families, and seniors living in the Greater El Paso region in exciting events and meaningful Jewish experiences.
