Calling Park Congregants!

At the most recent County Council meeting on January 28, 2025, Jewish attendees were verbally assaulted by the anti-Israel protesters, including being told they ‘smell’ and to ‘go die’ among other equally vile comments. You can find the statement from the Jewish Federation here.

All Park men and women are invited to come and perform the mitzvah of wrapping tefillin together during morning Minyan services. There will be experts on hand to help support you if you are new or haven’t recently wrapped teffillin.

Join the congregation for a Hot & Hearty!

Degenerate! Hitler’s War on Modern Art explores how artwork was used as propaganda to sway public opinion by the Nazi Party. Part history, part art show, the exhibition features famous works labeled as “degenerate” by the regime, including works by world-renowned artists such as Picasso, Chagall, Kandinsky, Kirchner, Grosz, and more. View the exhibit with a trained docent, with time to also explore on your own following the tour.

The Gesher Group invites everyone for a special evening of fellowship, food, and film! The evening begins with the Mincha/Maariv services, followed by a Seudah, the 3rd Shabbat meal, and Havdalah. Then sit back and enjoy the showing of “When Comedy Went to School,” a hilarious and nostalgic film about the Catskill resorts and their shows that were the “schools” where Jewish comedians honed their skills, performing before tough New York audiences. See classic footage of Sid Caesar, Larry King, Jerry Stiller, Woody Allen, Mel Brooks, Jerry Seinfeld, and more! You’re guaranteed to laugh or your money back!

The Hebrew word "Yachad" means "together," which defines this new class led by licensed early childhood educator Dana Saltzman.

spending vacation time with his niece, Masie, and nephew, Grant. But in terms of caretaking or relating to two children, no matter how adorable, Patrick is, honestly overwhelmed. So, when tragedy strikes, and Masie and Grant lose their mother, and their father has a health crisis of his own, Patrick finds himself in the role of primary guardian. Despite having a set of “Guncle Rules” ready to go, Patrick has no idea what to expect with a life-style not so suited to a six and nine year old. Quickly realizing that parenting is not so easily solved by tricks and jokes, Patrick’s eyes are opened to a sense of responsibility, and he realizes that sometimes, even being larger than life means you are unfailingly human.
