Post–Tisha B’Av Kumzitz

Our Avoda

Discover the joy and beauty of Yiddishkeit through Torah, tefillah, and a chevrah that feels like family.

At our shul, we grow together in our avodas Hashem, build lasting friendships, and support one another through life’s simchos and challenges.

Whether you join us for davening, a shiur, or a community gathering, you’ll find a warm welcome and a place to belong.

Our Chevrah

Our chevrah brings together men and families who share a desire to learn, grow, and live with purpose.

From learning around the table to celebrating together, our shul is a place where lasting friendships take root. We encourage one another to become stronger bnei Torah and to contribute to our community.

Come for the Torah. Stay for the warmth, friendship, and sense of belonging.

Our Rav

Rabbi Meyer Bodner grew up in Lakewood, New Jersey, and learned in Adelphia, Denver, and Bais Medrash Govoha, where he received semichah. Alongside his business career in Brooklyn, he spent many years teaching and inspiring talmidim at Yeshiva Ohr Yitzchok.

In 2015, he founded the shul in Far Rockaway to create a welcoming home for Torah, tefillah, and personal growth. The shul is named after the congregation of his rebbi, Rabbi Alster of Flatbush, who agreed to serve as its senior rabbinical adviser.

Rabbi Bodner established the Night Kollel to help men of all ages gain confidence and make steady progress in Gemara and halacha. His approach combines clear guidance, encouragement, and a deep commitment to every member of the chevrah.
