Temple Am Echad

Temple Am Echad It is our belief that the fabric of our Temple community will be enriched by your participation.

Temple Am Echad is an open and affirming Reform congregation welcoming families and singles, persons with disabilities, Jews of all races, cultures, sexual orientations and gender expressions, as well as Jews-by-choice and interfaith families. Temple Am Echad represents the successful merger of two south shore congregations, Temple Emanu-El of Lynbrook and Temple Sinai of Long Island. Temple Emanu

-El of Lynbrook was born in 1920 out of a desire to provide a Jewish education to the children of the area. Begun as a cooperative effort, Am-Echad continues that volunteer tradition today. Founded in 1951, Temple Sinai of Long Island started as a twenty family offshoot of another area synagogue. A building was acquired and a religious school was started immediately. As a member of the Union For Reform Judaism (URJ), we subscribe to the open, inclusive and progressive tenets of an ever-changing and growing Liberal Judaism.

Sunday marked the close of another wonderful year in our Religious School with our annual Mitzvah Day.

Our students and families spent the morning giving back to our community through hands-on acts of kindness. Together, we filled snack bags for The INN, decorated gift bags for Atria Senior Living, and partnered with our Caring Community to create no-sew blankets that were also delivered to Atria.

We wrapped up the year by celebrating together with ice cream and reflecting on the many ways even small acts of kindness can make a big difference.

Thank you to our students, families, and volunteers for making this year so meaningful. Wishing everyone a wonderful summer. โ˜€๏ธ
