Congregation B'nai Israel

Jason Calderon

I was visiting bridgeport for the first time in my life last last Sabbath but was nervous because I heard so many bad things about Bridgeport but it was so beautiful and clean and quiet so my friend Tracy and I were more than happy tO see so many synagogues closeby and we wanted to see if we can catch a service and worship the father as he commanded but as soon as we stepped foot on this parking lot the security guard became very rude and unwelcoming and intrusive and rude so we just walked away and sat on a bench out of his way. I began to pray when another woman came up to us and told us we had to leave this was private property and we did not belong there. She would not tell me her name but eventually said she was the director and her name was sue. I never felt so dissapointed and welcome in anyother synagogue in my life I observe the sabath every week, I pray and read the scriptures day and night when I step foot near a house of worship in peace in the name of the heavenly father I should not have to worry about being chased around by strangers who want to persecute me for no reason. I did not come to see them I came to pay respects to god on a Saturday. they made us feel so bad it was horrible what bullies I will not let a couple rotten apples disturb my peace I forgive them and really enjoyed bridgeport otherwise. Thank god there were many other synagogues in the nieghborhood I never have to step foot there again
