Join us on Sunday mornings at 8:15 AM for our Shacharit Minyan.

Last month's show was a huge success! It was so special to gather in unity and solidarity for Israel. We had over 150 in attendance! Please join us THIS Monday, December 11th, for UnOrthodox Comedy - Chanukah Edition, a comedy night produced by Chani Lisbon and featuring Mathew Broussard, Liz Glazer, Harrison Greenbaum, Elon Altman, and Chani Lisbon. A percentage of the proceeds will be donated to support IDF soldiers. Tickets may be purchased here. Doors open at 7:30 and the show will begin at 8:30.

We are super excited to host  an incredible evening with Leah Forster. Her hilarious show, called "Kvetch with Me" takes a hard and hysterical look at today's experience as a New York Jew. She will also debut the brand new Independent comedy film short called "The Shidduch Crisis." Get ready for interactive kvetching, lots of laughs, and good energy! Proceeds to benefit victims suffering with PTSD. You can buy tickets here.

Israel in our Hearts

This Shabbat Day there will be a peaceful walk around Washington Square Park and Union Square Park to raise awareness of the hostages in Israel. Shabbat is a time to pause, connect, and reflect; yet, as long as our family in Israel are suffering, we cannot rest. The walk has been organized by Dr. Michelle Sarna, will begin at 2:00 PM at the Bronfman Center, and will take approximately one hour.

Please continue to stand with Israel by supporting the helpers. Our dear friends Rabbi Joe Wolfson and Jonathan Muhlrad have been leading the JLIC effort in Israel to support those who have lost so much. Our friends Penina Seidman, Leila Deluty, and Michelle Charnoff have been distributing supplies to reservists called upon to serve. You can venmo @sixthstreetsynagogue or donate on our website. Be sure to specify that your donation is for Israel Aid.

Please continue to you support each other. While this sort of peril and loss, as well as the emotional responses they engender, aren’t new to our national history, they are - in fact - new to most of us. Remember that we all come to the (kiddush) table with different psychological skill sets and traumas. Look out for one another, check in, and be flexible to, and understanding of, the broad spectrum that is the emotional health of others. We ask that when you speak to each other, you be mindful of potentially inflammatory language and gruesome content; particularly in the presence of children.

Find comfort in community as we process the daily horrors and pray for safety, peace, and consolation.

Membership has almost no privileges.

But it's the right thing to do and it allows us to thrive. Won’t you please share in our great legacy and help us continue our impressive revitalization? There are, of course, various membership options and we hope that one works for you.
