Shaare Tefilah
A Sephardic congregation on Whalepond Road in Eatontown, New Jersey, led by Rabbi Moshe Douek since 2007.
פִּתְחוּ לִי שַׁעֲרֵי צֶדֶק
אָבֹא בָם אוֹדֶה יָהּ
A growing family in Eatontown
Shaare Tefilah began in December 1992 with Shabbat services in private homes. When Rabbi Moshe Douek came in 2007 there were about seventy families and one daily minyan. Today hundreds of families pray here, with four minyanim every Shabbat morning, learning by day and by night, a mikveh, and children everywhere you look.
“Open for me the gates of righteousness; I will enter them and thank God.”Tehillim 118:19
