Abe Skorski

I have been davening at Anshei Shalom since around 1991, when our shul was just the small house in front – which you see the construction company actively bulldozing.

Two of my 3 daughters, Nicole and Alli, were Anshei babies. Now, Nicole has 2 of her own.

Years ago, I was involved with a Kids at Risk program in West Hempstead, where I acted as a chaperone for their events. Today, some would say, I am an adult “at risk (lol).” I served as Gabbai Sheini for 6 years, often filling in as Gabbai Rishon. Over the years, I have consulted with Rabbi Pearl, not only on personal matters but on business matters as well, which led to some pretty incredible opportunities. I have also been fortunate to be a part of Rabbi Soniker’s weekly Gemarah shiur, which I used as an excuse to get weekly cholent from fellow shiur member, Moishe Mark.

I have been politically active since my college days, primarily as a pro-Israel activist. I have written two books, one of which was published, and have appeared on C-Span, Fox News, MSNBC, and other media outlets. I co-hosted a political Podcast over the last year as a means to advance the pro-Israel narrative and combat antisemitism. In my real life, when I’m not trying to save the world, I am in the candy and chocolate wholesale industry….please don’t say, “That’s why he is so sweet.”
