FAQs / What’s new about The New Shul?

Actually, what’s new about The New Shul is also very old. Back before synagogues became complicated institutions with organizational charts and so on, they were “shuls” — houses of learning and prayer, in which Jews who cared about each other came together to try to get closer to God. At The New Shul, we go “back to the future” to recapture that feeling. The New Shul functions more like an extended family than like a typical institution. We keep our organizational structures to a minimum and focus on the basics: prayer, learning, and caring for others.
