Come worship with us!
Temple Israel of Putnam Valley (Lake Drive, Lake Peekskill) is inaugurating a new program of “synagogue skills” learning. Rather than conduct a normal Shabbat service, we will be gathering together to study and learn for an hour or so. What we hope to do is to explore, in a relaxed and informal format, a series of key prayers and rituals that take place in synagogues around the world during Shabbat services. Our hope is that those who attend will find that they will become more comfortable with the content of the service.
This program is especially designed for anyone who is interested in learning more about what all these prayers and rituals mean but was afraid to ask!
EVERYONE IS CORDIALLY INVITED.
These informal “shul” sessions will take place on the
2nd & 4th Shabbat each month until further notice.
Regular Shabbat Services are held the 1st & 3rd Saturday each month at 9:30 am
Services are held in the Temple Sanctuary, Lake Shore Dr. in Lake Peekskill

An Evening With The Best Of Edgar Allan Poe, as interpreted by actor Paul Savior.
Mr. Savior’s selection of seventeen poems of love, sorrow, loss and terror, will be presented as a journey through the brief and troubled life of one of the most important literary voices of the first half of the 19th century. Remembered as a poet, storyteller, essayist, editor, critic and leading American Romanticist, Poe was defined by D. H. Lawrence as "An adventurer into the vaults, and cellars and horrible underground passages of the soul".
Mr. Savior, a resident of Putnam Valley, has enjoyed a long professional acting
career that has included starring roles in both daytime and nighttime television. For the past 25 years, his attention has been focused on voice-over work for TV and radio. His life-long fascination with the works of Edgar A. Poe led him to make the poetry selections to be presented in this program.
Meets Wednesdays at Hollowbrook Travel - 11 Oscawana Lake Rd.
