Fair Lawn—Nathan and Rachel Bednarsch were recently honored at Congregation Darchei Noam of Fair Lawn’s first annual dinner, held at the Fair Lawn Jewish Center. All guests were toasted and roasted as dinner was served. Most importantly, the Congregation and community expressed their appreciation to the Bednarsches, who were founders of Darchei Noam, and held services in their Kenneth Avenue home. Nathan also served as the congregation’s president.  Rabbi Jeremy and Rebbitzin Shira Donath inspire and excite both old and new members with their warm and welcoming attitude, which contributed greatly to the shul’s expansion.

Since its inception seven years ago, the congregation has grown significantly and recently celebrated its fourth year in its Alexander Avenue location. The kehilla is looking to expand and enlarge the facility to include its many new young families.
