Welcome to our website; we look forward to welcoming you in person. For 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: JAN/FEB 2012 Vouchsafing Judaism and Our Congregation
Once again our teens are a source of hope and pride. Each year I bring a group of our teens to Washington, D.C. to participate in the L’Taken Seminar of our Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism. The L'Taken Seminar is an intensive four-day kallah, in Washington, D.C., focused on Jewish values and social justice. About 300 high school students (10th - 12th graders) and their chaperones from across the country, California to Maine and places in between,gathered to learn Jewish social justice values, the legislative process, and the political and social reality we need to transform. The weekend included educational, social, and religious programs.
