Welcome to the New MSC Digital Experience

A Modern Platform Built to Serve Our Community

We are excited to introduce the new Manhattan Sephardic Congregation website — an upgraded digital home designed to support our growing community with clarity, efficiency, and connection. This platform is more than a website. It is a central hub for synagogue life: events, learning, giving, communication, and member services — all in one place.

Our goal is simple: to give our community powerful tools that make participation easier, information clearer, and connection deeper.

To take full advantage of everything we’ve built, we strongly encourage all members and friends of MSC to create an account on the website.

Your New MSC Member Portal

The member portal is the core of the new digital experience. Once you create an account, you will unlock personalized tools that make engaging with the shul simple and seamless.

With an MSC account, you can:

🧾 Manage Your Donations & Payments

• View all past and outstanding donations, pledges, and invoices

• Instantly download receipts and statements

• Access donation history for tax purposes

• Track recurring payments and set reminders

  
  

🪑 Register for Events Effortlessly

• Autofill saved information for fast sign-ups

• Save encrypted payment details for secure, quick checkout

• See who else is attending MSC events

• Modify or cancel registrations with ease

  
  

📸 Interact on the MSC Feed

The MSC Feed is our new community bulletin — your go-to destination for:

• Upcoming events and classes

• Holiday schedules and announcements

• Program updates

• Photo galleries from past events

• Community discussions and Q&A

• Feedback and comments from other members

Members can like, comment, reply, and ask questions — creating a space where our community can help each other, share information, and stay connected. (Please go ahead and try for yourself on this post below...Like and comment your thoughts on the new digital experience!)

Some posts may be visible only to logged-in members or to specific groups (Hebrew School parents, Bar/Bat Mitzvah families, program participants, etc.) to ensure relevant updates reach the right people.

A Smarter Event Center

Our new Events Center makes MSC programs easier than ever to follow.

You can now:

• Browse all upcoming classes, programs, and holiday events

• Register and pay online

• View event details, schedules, and updates

• Upload and view photos after events

• Track your personal registrations from your member dashboard

• You will be able to download you tickets to apple wallet and you will receive a pdf ticket confirmation in your email.

This is designed to reduce confusion, centralize information, and keep everyone up to date.

Automatic Invoicing & Receipts

Behind the scenes, we have integrated a streamlined invoicing system that:

• Generates receipts automatically

• Sends confirmations instantly

• Records your contributions directly into your private donation portal

• Keeps every transaction accessible and clearly organized

Whether you are sponsoring a kiddush, making a donation, paying for Hebrew School, or contributing to a holiday campaign, everything is securely saved for you in one secure place.

Opportunities to Support

The Support page showcases all current opportunities to contribute to MSC:

• Membership

• Kiddush sponsorships

• Holiday programs

• Aliyah dedications

• Special funds

• Facility rentals

• And more

Each option includes clear descriptions and easy checkout, so you can support MSC in the ways that matter most to you.

More Tools Coming Soon

Over the next several weeks, we will continue rolling out new features that enhance our community experience even further, including:

• Member-only access to special content

• Personalized reminders

• Dedicated pages for specific groups (Hebrew School, Bar/Bat Mitzvah families, holiday registrants)

• Streamlined Aliyah and Misheberach requests

Our mission is to make MSC more organized, accessible, and user-friendly — giving our community the digital infrastructure it deserves.
