The sculpture that Rabbi Fredric Pomerantz, z’l, commissioned in the memory of his son, Jeremy Daniel Pomerantz, z’l previously lived in the Memorial Garden of Temple Beth-El of Northern New Jersey. Since that temple has closed, the garden and sculpture will be restored as a sacred place for memory and music on the grounds of Temple Beth Shalom. It will be called The Pomerantz Family Memorial Garden. Thanks to Flo Hannes’ vision, we present three renderings of the proposed garden. If you would like to make a donation to the resoration of the Garden, you may do so here. Rabbi Pomerantz was more than just a father to Rabbi Shinder. He was her rabbi, her mentor, and her teacher. As we at Temple Beth Shalom believe, L’dor V’dor, from generation to generation. Read more about Rabbi Pomerantz here.       SISTERHOOD GIFT SHOP CLOSEOUT SALE!

Welcome to Temple Beth Shalom…Jewishly Warm and Relevant

We are proud to provide a safe and sacred space for all Jews and interfaith families without regard to race, gender, or other barriers to love.
