A new initiative offering programming to members of four neighborhood synagogues (The Community Synagogue, Port Jewish Center, Temple Beth Israel, and the Reconstructionist Synagogue of the North Shore) ages 55 and above.
We are hoping these programs give you fun and exciting new ways to connect to your synagogue community. The Shalom Synagogue Village also provides the opportunity to meet and foster new relationships with members of other local synagogues, further deepening your connection to the synagogue community and the greater Port Washington area.
New programs are being added regularly. Please check back with us.

Rabbi Z, Rabbi Mishkin, Rabbi Mendelson and Cantor Schulmiller shared a Jewish text they thought we needed to hear at this moment in history.
Here are the handouts from the Four Clergy from Thursday night’s program.
