An orthodox that has flourished in an unlikely location.

Although it is famous, Palm Beach is a small town of only about 10,000 people located on an Atlantic coast barrier island which is only 3.9 square miles in area. The town was established as a resort by Henry Morrison Flagler who made the area accessible via his Florida East Coast Railway. The nucleus of the community was established by Flagler’s two luxury resort hotels, the Royal Poinciana Hotel and The Breakers Hotel. The Palm Beach Synagogue is located just two blocks from Flagler’s famous Breakers Hotel.

That a synagogue of about 300 members can flourish in such a small town attests to the dedication and dynamic personalities of Rabbi Moshe and Dinie Scheiner. The Synagogue offers early childhood programs, Hebrew elementary school and high school, an array of youth events and an extensive and enriching adult program.
