Since 1937, the Mastic Beach Hebrew Center has been providing inspirational service to the community and surrounding neighborhoods of Long Island.  It has always been our goal to provide a deep spiritual Judaic experience involving people of all levels of observance.

Although we are a reform Jewish Temple, we make a serious attempt to modify our services to attract not only Jews but the spouses and children of interfaith marriages who wish to become enlightened about the Jewish faith.

As the new Rabbi of MBHC, I can assure you of my commitment and sincerity in creating an atmosphere of deep understanding and joy.

My door is always open and I will lend a helping hand to all who seek my advice in strict confidence.

I am willing to consider new ideas and adopt changes.  I have a deep desire to help the community and this includes joint events with houses of worship of any faith.  Nobody is ever turned away.  I sincerely hope I can make a difference in our temple.

Shalom to all

Rabbi Altman
