Special Torah Procession, Mezuzah Ceremony & Kabbalat Service
Congregation Sinai has recently moved into their new location with a special grand opening. Congregation Sinai has successfully been serving the Jewish Community of Clermont and Central Florida since 2003. They have just moved to 1200 West Broad Street in nearby Groveland at the edge of Clermont.
Special Services & Programs: Joseph and Lynn Goldovitz provide distinctively unique spiritual leadership at Sinai. This organization serves as a house of prayer and study in which the Jewish spectrum of heritage and religious expression is cultivated, protected and nurtured. With a broad array of educational programs for children, adult education, bible study groups, bar/bat mitzvah study programs and group tours to Israel; they strive to educate adults and children in Judaism’s rich heritage with contemporary significance while sharing Jewish culture, rituals, traditions, and values. They hold Shabbat Services every Friday Night with Torah readings, weekly Bible & Bagel study workshops, Healing Services, many very creative service events as well as special services for every major Jewish Holiday. Their newly elected Board of Directors is led by Peter Sobel as President.
Strong Community Involvement: While the local Jewish Community attends prayer services and special events, they have opened their doors to the entire community, regardless of faith. Congregation Sinai regularly supplies donations of food and supplies for the local schools as well as food and clothing for the needy as well as for Puerto Rican and US Virgin Islands relief. They hold ongoing food drives for the needy and interfaith activities to promote understanding among our different cultures. They welcome all with open arms and hearts to their services. They provide a warm spiritual environment for the observance of Jewish holidays, traditions and celebration of our members’ life cycle events.
Robust Growth: This is one of the few temples with active spiritual leadership here in Central Florida. Most Congregation Sinai members live in the Clermont area with some from the nearby Minneola, Groveland, Winter Garden, and Davenport areas. Sinai has steadily grown to serve over 150 Central Florida members’ from 6 to 96 years old. All members help to pray for each other as a family. Sinai has a very active Sisterhood with special events and annual fashion shows that often host 250 women from across the community. They also host various women’s outreach programs inviting all area churches. Their Men’s Club is very active with monthly movie and pizza nights, charitable programs as well as their annual golf tournament.
