Hurricanes and Beth Jacob

[edit]

Can someone knowledgeable write about Beth Jacob and the various hurricanes? What happened during Hurricane Carla in 1961? Was the building destroyed? The congregation dispersed? What about during Hurricane Ike in 2008? Poldy Bloom (talk) 18:45, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]


  • The synagogue had some first-floor flooding during Ike, but the building was not destroyed and the congregation, from my understanding, is OK. Contrary to many media reports, Galveston was not destroyed by Hurricane Ike, but in many parts of the city the ground floor of structures did sustain heavy flood damage. I will endevour to find out more about the congregation's post-Ike plans. The building belonging to the reform congregation, B'nai Israel, had some minor damage from the storm as well, but they still managed to hold Yom Kippur services. --Nsaum75 (talk) 02:07, 21 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
