WELCOME TO CENTRAL SYNAGOGUE OF NASSAU COUNTY

Welcome to our website; we look forward to welcoming you in person. For over seventy-five years, Central Synagogue of Nassau County has served individuals and families on the South Shore of Nassau County. We are a dynamic congregation, committed to the philosophy of Reform Judaism. We welcome young persons and elders, individuals and families, Jews by birth and by choice, non-Jewish partners in interfaith couples, gay and straight persons, those who are spiritually settled and persons feeling spiritually restless. We work to make Judaism and our synagogue accessible to those who have special needs and/or disabilities. We include all persons who are willing to commit to the integration of community, worship, study, acts of loving kindness (gemilut hasadim), and repair of the world (tikkun olam). We pursue this with joy and punctuate our communal activities with laughter.


RABBI'S MESSAGE: May 2013
Way More Important than Bat or Bar Mitzvah  

I am writing about a celebration that trumps the value and importance of bat or bar mitzvah by every standard of assessment except the numbers of participants.  Of what might I be thinking?  Well it is a life cycle celebration that has more significance in a young adult’s life than bat or bar mitzvah

(Article cont'd.)
