Gesher Class

Is your child in Pre-K? We offer a great opportunity for children to get a taste of our Religious School program with "Gesher: A Bridge to Religious School."  Classes meet seven times throughout the year on Sunday mornings from 9:15 am to 10:30 am and includes music, crafts, and holiday material. Click here to find out more details such as dates, times, cost and registration.

PJ Library

Every month dozens of children in our area eagerly await the mail carrier, "Did I get my mail?" they ask. They are not referring to letters from grandparents, candy or toys. They are waiting for the monthly book they get from PJ Library at Midway Jewish Center.  Any family with a child age six to to eight years old can sign up to receive a free Jewish-themed book each month for their children. We also hold special book-related events during the year for our PJ Library families to go with some of our favorite books. To register for the PJ Library, click here.

For information about Gesher for Pre-K children or PJ Library, please contact Rabbi Levenson at 516-938-8390 or jlevenson@mjc.org
