OUR RABBI
RABBI DEBORAH BRAVO
"On my journey, I have made connections with thousands of people, and each has made me a better Rabbi, and more importantly a better person. My fervent hope and vision for the future is for MakomNY to forever grow and evolve as a community that attracts engagement in Jewish life, and embraces each person who may not otherwise feel part of a Jewish community. We are here to meet people where they are on their individual journey with Judaism. We do so by helping each person to flourish, and by making Judaism the vehicle for flourishing. I cherish serving the community, and find great joy in building relationships each day within our community - with children, teens and adults. I love that so many have found a place, a Makom, here. I hope you will get to know us." Deborah Bravo

OUR MODEL
"Our ROOTS are our history, deeply planted in tradition.
Like a tree, the roots are bare, showing what we have in common.
We share the same past; we remain strong because our roots are strong."

How wonderful it is, and what pride you should take knowing you are giving towards the future, and building a promising Jewish foundation for today and for generations to come." Rabbi Bravo |

Planting Roots and Branching Out: The 'Shorashim Donation Program' We created our Shorashim Donation Program, literally meaning 'Putting Down Roots', as a way for individuals, couples and families to simply make easy automatic monthly donations to the community (or annual if preferred).

Those who engage in the Shorashim Donation Program may attend all MakomNY programs and actitivies at no additional per program donation, including High Holy Day Services, as well as family, social, cultural and learning events.
