My families experiences at this temple have been wonderful. They stood by my side and guided me through the loss and burial of my Mother-in-law, the cantor taught my son to ride a bike, they hired an extra teacher just for my young child who needed support during Hebrew school, they provided outreach to the community at large and I became involved in giving back to the community, they counseled me and offered unlimited support during my divorce, they offered an open door of consistent comfort, counsel and kindness. This is what religion should provide people with wherever they are on their spiritual journey...a sanctuary. Congregation Tifereth Israel is a place where your religious and spritual needs are always met.

Went last minute for the High Holidays and was welcomed with open arms. Hidden gem of a place with a fantastic Rabbi and Cantor. Great service and warm congregation. Highly recommend!

Something for everyone. Kind compassionate, open to all sects. No pressure, different services, classes and options for everyone. Rabbi, Cantor and the congragants are very nice and welcoming. Fantastic Hebrew School. Great people.

Thank you very much for including our son Alex yesterday. He came home absolutely exhilarated about the time he spent with friends brainstorming about ideas for the upcoming CTI Purim Carnival. I understand he signed up to help at the Carnival. He has a lot of experience with this! Alex can't wait to come back this Sunday!

Thank you so much for making Emily's Bat Mitzvah an unforgettable experience for her and our entire family. The explanations, and the interaction with the children was wonderful, and your heartfelt spirituality was clearly shared by everyone in the room. My friends and family, both Jewish and non Jewish, have not stopped telling us how much they enjoyed the service. One of my friends, in an intermarriage, said she wants to come to the Friday night musical Shabbat. Another Sea Cliff Christian friend said the service made her want to convert. Kevin's family, who was in from Michigan, couldnt get over what an inclusive and inspiring service it was. It was their first time in a Synagogue.

Barb and I want to thank you so much for all you have done to make the baby naming ceremony and Shabbat Service a truly memorable event that we will cherish in our hearts forever. Miriam Rachel (Melanie Rose) and our family are so fortunate to have you both provide such wonderful spiritual guidance and inspiration to our lives. With joy and sincere appreciation for all you have done and all you do.
