    Oldest existing Jewish House of Worship in the United States is Touro Synagogue of Newport, Rhode Island, which opened in 1763. It housed a Jewish congregation started in 1658:pic.twitter.com/HghZwAej7J

        My pleasure. So proud to be from a state that has been fiercely independent and progressive since the beginning.

        Most importantly, it still has an active congregation.

        And of course, Touro is the congregation George Washington wrote to to tell the Jews of America we’d always be safe here.

        So beautiful. And noteworthy that the Jewish congregation started in Newport, Rhode Island, USA such a long time ago, around three & one half centuries. Even before the signing of the Declaration of Independence. #TreeofLife

        On another thread, someone just posted “The New Colossus,” by Emma Lazarus, containing the famous words inscribed on the Statue of Liberty. But it reminded me that she also wrote this:https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/45637/in-the-jewish-synagogue-at-newport …
