B'nai Israel Synagogue, more commonly called The Woodbourne Shul, is an Orthodox Jewish congregation and historic, yet popular, synagogue, located at 457 NY State Route 52, in Woodbourne, in the Town of Fallsburg, in the Catskills region of Sullivan County, New York, in the United States. The congregation follows the Ashkenazi rite.
History
The first rabbi of the synagogue was David Isaac Godlin (1868-1943).
The synagogue was built in 1920 and is a two-story building above a shallow concrete basement. It is a wood-frame structure, three bays wide by four bays deep and surmounted by a steep gable roof with deep wooden cornice.[1]
The synagogue building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.[2]
Modern times
In 2010, Rabbi Mordechai Jungreis, Rebbe of the Nikolsburg-Woodbourne Hasidic dynasty, purchased the synagogue building, then in decline, from the congregation board for $120,000. Jungreis also leads a congregation in the Borough Park neighborhood of Brooklyn. After completing necessary repairs, in the first year of acquisition, approximately 2,000 attended the shul throughout the summer. By summer 2011, the amount of attendees had tripled. In the 2014 summer, the shul had approximately 10,000 weekly attendees; and in the summer of 2015, approximately 120,000 people attended the shul; described by some as a Minyan factory, with minyanim commencing every ten minutes throughout the day, from early morning to past midnight.[3][4][5]
The synagogue was initially used during the summer months, from Memorial day to Labor Day, when Sullivan County sees a large influx of Jewish vacationers. After COVID more people began using the synagogue during the year and now it is currently open all year long.
