"I asked, ‘Hey, what's Jewish life like up here?’ And she laughed. She's like, ‘There's nothing. I am the only Jew that lives here.’" - Rabbi Levi Mentz

“You need to understand, this is Forsyth County eight years ago. It was like putting a Jewish colony on Mars. ‘We're going to have a synagogue in Forsyth County?’” - Jeremy Lefkovits

"Our house was a two-and-a-half mile walk to shul. So that was one of the biggest marketing gigs, was my husband walking to shul every week, doing 5 miles of walking on a Shabbos. A lot of people were like, "Oh, we saw you walking!” And that was how they learned that there was something going on over here." - Rebbetzin Chaish Mentz
