    A previous reviewer complained that we do not have the Yizkor service at Congregation Ohr Torah…read more Yes we do!!! The reviewer perhaps went to our Sephardic minyan, and in that custom, they do not have Yizkor. Our Ashkenazic minyan, the original Shul minyan, always has Yizkor when appropriate. Also, the Ashkenazic minyan does not charge for aliyahs (being called to read the torah); the Sephardic minyan raffles off this honor. As for his statement about "Clergy from Israel," please be assured that our Rabbi, Rabbi Dovid M. Cohen, is a graduate of Yeshiva University, has a law degree from Columbia University, and also holds a Masters Degree in Family Therapy. He is a native of Long Island.

    We started to go to Ohr Torah in 1988 through 1989. Later on we go to Ohr Torah in 1994 all the…read moreway to 2000 when we have regular services, Mitzvahs services and high holiday services. Now few years ago they charged more money to read the torah every high holidays, I wanted to read the torah but we have to wait and see if it's gonna get changed in the near future when they will be cutting the costs of reading the torah. If they don't cut the costs, then there will be budget cuts instead to read the torah. Last year and this year, they didi not do Yizkor service for people who lost their love ones. When I go to another synagogue for the Yom Kippur service, we will get better services especially praying, reading the torah and Yizkor service for people who lost their love ones. In the future there will be changed for low costs for reading the torah every Yom Kippur for 17 other men in the big shul where it used to be the Social Hole that used to be parties. We've have to wait and see when they will change the newer Clergy from Israel including new Rabbis and new Cantors after the whole community fired them for reasons why they did NOT do Yizkor service last year and this year and cutting the costs to read the torahs.

    Conservative and egalitarian synagogue in Nassau county. It was also one of the first conservative…read moresynagogues to embrace women being included in every part of the service. This can be attributed to Rabbi Emeritus (who also passed) Stanley Platek who was a trailblazer for egalitarianism in conservative synagogues. Three stars are given only because lay leadership need to provide the extra hook to showcase the synagogue for what it is. They need to take more risks in mobilizing congregation as well as the community. IMO there is more talking and less doing.

    I am very disappointed in the Temple's policy regarding Kaddish services during Yom Kippur! I have…read morebeen a member of this congregation since 1984 and in all that time during Rabbi Platek and Nacham Plotnik's leadership (May the both Rest In Peace) the Temple always opened their doors to non-members to come at 3:00 or 5:00 to allow them into the small sanctuary to pray for their beloved family members who have passed away, to allow us to remember and honor them. We were not allowed this tradition this year since someone or some committee didn't think it was important enough to allow this wonderful tradition to continue, a practice which had always been done this way through the years. I also used to bring my grandchldren to the end of the service where they gave Israeli Flags to the children and listened while the Shofar was blown again to signify the end of Yom Kippur, this again was denied for non-members. At a time when the world is in such turmoil and religion is so important since we weren't allowed to pray at the Synagogue for over 2 years due to the Covid Virus and were only allowed to participate through Zoom! Yet another tradition was lost! For years I would end my fast with my children and grandchildren at Nacham's apartment with his family. What are we if not our traditions which teach us to love our G-d and remember our faith in the most honorable way to respect our beloved family members that are no longer with us! I can't begin to tell you how I feel I think it was terrible to exclude Jewish families who cannot afford to pay for a ticket to not be able to show reverence and honor to their families. I'm sure many other families felt as I did since the sanctuary was always filled each year! If not for tradition than what is a Jew? I have left a message for the Rabbi to call me back to discuss this matter. I will see if he does but the damage is already done! Yom Kippur has passed hopefully they will return to their original policy to let all who wish to attend Kaddish prayers in the little sanctuary for non-members during Yom Kippur be allowed to next year and in the future! Thank you, Anita
