The Northern New Jersey
Region
And You !
The Northern New Jersey Region is the
link between more than 30 Men's Clubs from Conservative synagogues in New Jersey and
Staten Island and the Federation of Jewish Men's Clubs, which serves more than 200
affiliated Clubs in the United States, Canada, Israel and Germany and the Masorti
communities of the United Kingdom and France. Together, we strive to increase the level of
Jewish observance, participation in synagogue life, and brotherhood among our members. We
do this by sharing ideas and pooling our talents and resources.
Working Together...
We strongly encourage our clubs to participate in
our Region-wide "bookend" events: The Man Of The Year Dinner after Simchat Torah
and The Presidents Dinner every spring.
We subsidize joint meetings among Clubs to build a stronger sense of community in our
Region and enhance successful programming.
We offer
member clubs a Speakers Bureau to enrich their programs and provide a
subsidy to defray costs.
We subsidize your attendance at the FJMC Biennial Convention
because we believe so strongly in its power to build camaraderie and provide Club
leaders with great ideas to make Clubs better.
We promote participation in the Yom HaShoah Yellow Candle Program to help our
community remember Jewish victims of the Holocaust and stand together against hatred and
bigotry.
We provide resources to help Clubs and their synagogues meet critical community issues
such as the Hebrew Christian challenge and the role of men as fathers and members of
Conservative synagogues.
...We Can Do More
|
Men's Clubs play a key role in the quality of
Jewish life in the synagogue. Our variety of activities educational, service,
social and athletic are designed to draw men to synagogue and expand their
horizons.
