Historic Marker
At Shaarey Zedek
Cong. Shaarey Zedek, one
of the oldest and largest
synagogues in the state, has
been named an historic con-
gregation by the Michigan
Historical Commission and
will receive a registered state
historic marker April 27. The
marker will be posted at the
11 Mile Road entrance to the
building.
Former Governor John B.
Swainson, chairman of the
commission, will make the
presentation at 7:45 p.m. to
start Shaarey Zedek's Annual
Meeting. Rabbi Irwin Groner
will accept on behalf of the
synagogue.
The inscription on the
marker reads: "In 1861, at
the beginning of the Civil
War, seventeen followers of
traditional Judaism withdrew
from the Beth El Society in
Detroit to found the `Shaarey
Zedek Society.' In 1877, the
membership constructed the
first building in Michigan to
be erected specifically as a
synagogue, at Congress and
St. Antoine. In 1913, as the
first Conservative Jewish
congregation in the Detroit
area, Shaarey Zedek was one
of the founding congregations
of the United Synagogue of
America.
"Since the nineteenth cen-
tury, members of the congre-
gation have played leading
roles in Michigan, the nation
and in world Jewry. Congre-
gation Shaarey Zedek has
worshipped in six different
structures since its founding,
continuing to transmit its
heritage from generation to
generation."
Judith Levin Cantor, the
congregation's archives
chairman, spearheaded the
drive to bring the historic
honor to the synagogue. She
is a member of the Michigan
Sesquicentennial Historic
Observance Committee.
