The Orthodox Community of Holliswood offers a wonderful mix of the advantages of Jewish city living and the pleasures of a picturesque, suburban neighborhood.
Our warm, welcoming kehilla has access to the plethora of schools, institutions and stores of Queens, along with beautiful homes along winding, tree-lined, streets.
Most of all, the Holliswood community is ready to make you a part of our kehilla.
Its warmth can be felt everywhere; we sing together at Friday Night Tishen at the Rabbi's home; we
daven together in a beautiful, quiet minyan; we shmooz together at our extended after-shul kiddushes, and
dance together at semachot, Shul dinners, and even at Kiddush Levana.
If you’re considering a move, consider not just the size of the Shul you will attend, but the opportunities its community affords you. Does it have the educational opportunities that you and your family are looking for?
Will you look forward to davening in its minyanim? Will you be playing a vital role in the shaping of your
community or just be one of the many who come Shabbat morning to Daven?
We, in Holliswood believe that YIHJC has a world of opportunities for you, and we’d love to
let you know how you can become part of our Shul. Please feel free to call us at 718-776-8500
with any questions you might have including to make arrangements to spend a shabbat with one of our families.
Under the direction of Rabbi Marc Penner, YIHJC has established itself as a leader in Shul programming and as a model for other Orthodox kehillot. The Young Israel of Holliswood boasts one of the largest Shul-based adult education programs in Queens, with classes ranging from Beginner’s classes to Advanced Shiurim in Navi, Halacha, Jewish Thought and Gemara.
Our Youth Department prides itself on cutting-edge Torah experiences for all ages.
The Young Israel of Holliswood's sixteen active committees provide a multitude of opportunities to get involved in a ground breaking synagogue’s efforts to build for the future.
About Holliswood
Holliswood is unlike any other community in New York City. Our streets are quiet and serene.
Our trees are lush and green and our sidewalks are nonexistent ( except by the Shul and the apartment complexes ).
We are a close knit community who socialize together, daven together and work together to keep our neighborhood the peaceful retreat it has become over the many years the Shul has been in existence.
Our community has homes of varying size and price and we have garden apartments and
multi story apartment buildings all within an easy Shabbat walk to the Shul.
New York City Mass Transit Buses and Express Buses are all within walking distance of Holliswood and the New York City Subway 'F' Train is a short bus ride away. ( Some have been known to walk.)
Shopping centers surround our community and the Kosher establishments are starting to pop up seemingly overnight.
