Early in l955 the Jewish Community in Bethpage joined together and held their first meeting in member's home. Then the Assembly of God Church on Stewart Avenue was made available to the community. As membership grew the need for additional space was evident. Land was purchased at 600 Broadway in l957 and on April 24, 1960 the Jewish Temple was dedicated.
The Jewish Center was closed in 2007 and the people are attending Jewish Centers in surrounding communities.
