Why Join a Synagogue?

A synagogue is more than a place of worship — it is the heart of the Jewish community and essential to sustaining the Jewish people for generations to come.

Even if you do not attend every service — or any service at all — belonging to a synagogue connects you to our shared history, traditions, and future. Without a synagogue, there is no central place to celebrate our simchas, mourn our losses, support one another, and carry on the customs and values that define us as a people.

In addition, Hebrew School gives children far more than the ability to read Hebrew. Students leave with an understanding of our traditions, an appreciation for Jewish values, and a strong Jewish identity that they carry throughout their lives. They learn what it means to be part of the Jewish community and why preserving our heritage matters.

Give your child the gift of a Jewish education and help keep our traditions alive by joining us.

Please call (718) 948-6782 for more information.

L’dor V’dor — from generation to generation.

Today was our last day of Hebrew school. Our Hay class students graduated and first year alef students received their siddurim.

We enjoyed an indoor BBQ (too hot outside) thanks to Steve Kisver and Susan Brenner.

Thank you to our Rabbi, teachers, parents and of course the students who for a wonderful school year!

The weather was perfect for our Hebrew School car wash!
All proceeds will go to support our 7th grade students’ Mitzvah projects.

One of our students who will become a Bar Mitzvah in October, (Josh) is raising money to support Hatzalah, and he invited them to come and and have their ambulance washed by the best car washers on the east coast!

Hatzalah is the largest non-profit ambulance service in the United States.

Manned exclusively by volunteers, we provide pre-hospital emergency medical treatment and transportation to the public, regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, or ability to pay.

Thank you to everyone who came to support our car wash!

More white board art spotted in a Hebrew school classroom that evidently has been up for a while, unbeknownst to the photographer. 😃
