From Rabbi Rubinstein

“Study and learning is the Jewish way. Wrestling with ideas is the Jewish way. Engaging ourselves with the words of Torah is the Jewish way. So from here on in, nothing will happen within the walls of this synagogue not laced with education. This is our dedication. This is our commitment. This is how it will happen.”
