I am pleased to present a video and a few photos of the synagogue and its activities from the last few years. I hope to add more photos from time to time. Please scroll down for pictures from recent events.

Burying sacred books
Shavua tov ..... It was a blessing from Old Broadway to the elder Jewish community at the Bronx Park Nursing and Rehab Center. Reb Shoyl [Paul Radensky] generously provided two containers of Moroccan Cholent with Synagogue community donations of Sesame seed and Russian bagels. There were enough for four bagels -- two each variety -- for each participating member of the Bronx Park Elder Jewish community. New Calendars were ready and given to each member of the Center community as well as other appropriate and needing support staff. The Apple Bank calendays evoked many positive comments on the beautiful new photos and artwork.
ReplyDeleteThanks to all at Old Broadway from all at Bronx Park. It was a wonderful way to support my worship interests at Old Broadway Synagogue by adding both to my community groups work with the Seniors' Activity Group, a project of my foundation, the Frances York Charitable Trust Endowment.
"May all in their senior years enjoy joyous and active life to the fullest to the very end!! L'chaim and Mazel Tov!!"
Many blessings conveyed for the coming Erev Rosh Hashanah through to Simchat Torah.
Always yours, Elyas Fraenkel Isaacs, Ph.D.
