An independent synagogue in Northern Manhattan
As an unaffiliated congregation that has long been an anchor of the Jewish community in Washington Heights and Inwood, we have thrived by evolving with our neighborhood and our membership. Today, the congregation is a diverse mix of families and individuals from many backgrounds. Our egalitarian services and our traditional ritual — spiritual, tuneful and participatory — attract people of all levels of observance.

Reimagine End-of-Life: Conversations and Workshops
FTJC joins this citywide initiative with two workshop discussions and a Devar Torah, focusing on communal conversations about how to ensure that everyone’s wishes for end-of-life care are expressed and respected.
"Cheshvan Meditations: Finding Holiness in the Ordinary," four sessions on Mondays at 7:30 PM through November 5. A new pilot program in collaboration with our neighbors at the Beis Community!
Sukkot, Shemini Atzeret, and Simchat Torah
Festival prayers, joyful and song-filled Hallel. Eat and learn in the Sukkah. Shake the lulav, hold the etrog and hear the once-a-year sacred prayer for rain, “Geshem”. And how can you miss the dancing, merriment and the honor we bestow on the Torah and on our community?!
