Reply To: Temple Beth El in BP ought to become an Aish Kodesh type shul!

soliek,

and whose problem is that?

Almost everyone in the USA.

do you daven at the shul often?

I try, but the population was a better fit for my octogenarian and nonagenarian relatives, a”h. I went there as a small child when the Kousevitzkys were Chazzanim in BP, and there was electricity in the air and there wasnt a spare seat in the shul.

soliek, may everyone there and the rest of Klal Yisroel live gezunterheit til 120, but what do you predict the membership will look and feel like in ten to fifteen years, if ch”v Moshiach hasnt arrived by then? This Shul is a stunning piece of history and if it doesnt go up in popularity and membership, it will unfortunately go the other direction and go the way of Emanuel, with bulldozers, even if it isnt conservative like Emanuel. I dont claim to be G-d or a prophet, but thats the way I see it. That would be a crime.
