Welcome to the Sixth Street Community Synagogue!

We strongly believe that safeguarding health is a Halakhic priority, one that requires us to act boldly to protect our community, our neighborhood, and beyond.  Thank you for partnering with us as we diligently follow the advice of professionals and demonstrate to God that we value life above all.

We have begun our slow return to our beloved sanctuary. We waited a bit longer than other synagogues to reopen, exploring the safety precautions others are taking, making the necessary ritual changes we shall be implementing, and monitoring the local rates of infection.The durability of our return will in many ways depend upon local rates of infection, as well as our community’s ability to abide by our standards to create and maintain a safe environment for all of us.

The below represent an updated set of Practices & Community Expectations. Over time, we expect these could be modified, updated, or extended.

All classes are now on Zoom. Click here for upcoming classes and materials.

We're a thriving, engaged, and welcoming Modern Orthodox Jewish community in the heart of the East Village. An 80 year old synagogue in a 173 year old building.

We like to think we're different. Everyone from the occasionally observant to the traditionally Orthodox feels at home here. We hope you do too.

Our community reflects the character of lower Manhattan -- intelligent, diverse, open, and fun -- while still deeply committed to values of Torah, Chesed and Halakhah. 

We'd love to have you join us for a Shabbat, a holiday, or just a beer.
