That meant a great deal to me but I never had found the time to go. Today I found that time. One reason I went was in direct response to the SNAP benefits cruel debacle. This, I thought was better than marching - walking beside and offering a helping hand. Mercy, empathy and compassion are the marrow in the national spine - the international backbone. What was to have been an act of personal protest morphed into something unexpectedly different. We've become an outwardly more calloused land of late, where selfishness and insensitivity are worn like badges of honor. They're not; they're a stain on our image to the world - worse: to ourselves. I didn't do much day except hand out chips and offer supportive subtle enthusiasm. No one will remember me nor should they - I was fortunate enough to arrive and depart as a day tripper. But it's the faces that haunted me. You never knew what lead each man and woman there or what their fate would ultimately be. Yet here we were. Crossing fates in the same hall. And there was this unspeakably overwhelming sense as nearly two hundred hungry souls filed by us as we doled out chips and hot dogs and apples that we the dilettantes were happy to do. I felt we stood at the edge of a vast sea of unknowable suffering - that our few hours were a drop of living kindness, as the Buddhists call it, in this sea that's always threatened to drown the world. I can't put my finger on this sense of today except to say I'll return to learn perhaps a greater understanding. And the staff. They reminded me of that humbled awe I felt for 9/11 and covid first responders. I may not change a single life for the better except mine handing out child but I know that offering a helping hand to those struggling in need is what defines humanity and defies inhumanity. I'm grateful I experienced this. And even catching the glimpse of so many as they passed was a bracing wake up call to what's really going on. Thank you.

    It is SOOO strange to write a review for a house of worship! I am not a religious gal (I put the…read mores-e-c-u-l-a-r in secular) - and it's been a lot of years since I've been to any service. I attended a Saturday morning service and Bat Mitzvah, and was impressed as soon as I walked in the building, I was immediately impressed with how light, bright and open everything was. The rabbi has a great personality - his love really comes through. The cantor has one of the most amazing singing voices I've ever heard - she is phenomenal! This is a reform congregation - and as the reviewer Joel mentioned - everyone is welcome! Gay, interfaith, whatever. It's a very warm and inviting place of community. I don't know that I was touched by the spirit to seek out a religious connection - but if that ever were to happen, I'd really hope I could find a place like BHS to call home. It's what a religious institution should be!

It has programs for infants through seniors. Interfaith and gay families have a home at the Brooklyn Heights Synagogue. There is a great concern for Tzedakah, education and mutual support. BHS has been running a homeless shelter for over 20 years, religious services, educational programs and social events. It is a place that can easily become your home.

It has amazing classes, workshops, retreats, and events all dedicated to consciousness, including workshops with traditional people from all over the world, yoga, sound healing, astrology, health and wellness, sacred song classes, dance, meditation, sacred art, and more. This is a space where you can step into a peaceful and harmonious environment and find a moment to breathe and center yourself amidst the busyness of NYC. I am so grateful to the Golden Drum for being a place where I can always come and receive a lot of beautiful wisdom and teachings from elders and wisdom keepers from sacred traditions all over the world. I have been going to events and classes there, as well as offering workshops there since it's doors opened in 2011. Highly recommended!

It's a good value and it's a simple process, and, unlike at so many other places, the people you deal with at FAPC are helpful and nice.

On one end, at times it seems liturgical in some aspects, other times it seems less than the PCUSA church I attend as far as liturgy ,feel and look. At times it reminds me of the interior of a Jewish synagogue versus a Presbtyerian mainline sanctuary. And honestly the robes look more like I am in a Jewish synagogue hearing a Rabbi speak and worship. I think this church would gain much if they let loose of these old fashioned preachers robes, and the bow has got to go. It looks and takes away from reverance. They need to have more elements of a Presbyterian sanctuary. It really leaves me with a mixed feeling. I know that God is in this place and they mean well. But you really do need to keep your elements of liturgy together and more uniform than a hybrid hodge podge puritan mix, that went out years and years ago. A nice processional with a cross, change of colors and more visual light colors versus the drab woud do this a world of good. They have elements of high liturgy, and then they down play it. It's almost as if they are there, then they back off. Another analogy, as if a Baptisit is trying its best to incorporate liturgy into a service. I like the sermons and the spirit, it just needs a 2021 /21st century Presbyterian face lift. ;)
