WELCOMING A NEW SYNAGOGUE TO HUDSONJEWISH!
HudsonJewish is pleased to welcome Temple Israel Community Center/Congregation Heichal Yisrael of Cliffside Park! The latest congregation to join the HudsonJewish effort, TICC is a Conservative synagogue led by Rabbi Shammai Engelmayer. Located nearby the new waterfront developments of northern Hudson County, TICC is one of two synagogues in the HudsonJewish effort that are not technically within Hudson County. Temple Israel Community Center/Congregation Heichal Yisrael recognizes the benefits of cooperating with neighboring shuls to reach out to newcomers and to collaborate on issues of common interest. We welcome Rabbi Engelmayer and his congregation to HudsonJewish!
