Welcome to The New Shul
Rebbe's Table Photos
Are you a Rebbe's Table regular or a wannabe, wondering what it's like? Either way, you'll want to see our Rebbe's Table Photo Album from the 5/13/12 event with Jodi Kantor, best-selling author of The Obamas.
Shavuot
Tue, 5/19, 7pm, Westbeth Community Room, 55 Bethune St.
Join us for our community Shavuot celebration led by Rabbi Zach. Since last year's was such a hit, we will once again be using Zach's YouTube/Talmud methodology to explore our sacred texts in honor of this festival of the giving of the Torah. Save the date—details coming soon.
Torah Schmooze
Thursdays, 6-7pm, Le Pain Quotidien, 550 Hudson at Perry St.
Whether you've studied Torah all your life or have never read a word, you'll find plenty to talk about at The New Shul's weekly Torah Schmooze. It's free, you can come when you like and no prior experience, knowledge or belief is required. If you're interested, email torahschmooze@newshul.org.
Members Speak
My Daughter's Shul
The New Shul is a special place to each of us for different reasons. We recently heard from one member about hers—and were so moved, we wanted to share what she had to say. Read it here!
Rabbi Darby's Translation of the Shema
If you joined us for the High Holy Days, you experienced the Shema in American Sign Language, but perhaps you didn't know it was Rabbi Darby's own translation. In this video, he explains the thinking that went into it.
