S1E13 - The only rabbi in Vaudreuil: Why Alice Frank Patry moved from New York to suburban Quebec

Yehupetzville with Ralph Benmergui

After living in New York City for 10 years, Alice Frank Patry moved to Vaudreuil, a suburban town across the river from the Island of Montreal. There, married to a non-Jewish man, an hour's drive from the Jewish epicenter of Montreal, Frank Patry became ordained as a Renewal rabbi. She joins to discuss her reasons for moving, her connection to Judaism and how she celebrates her faith in a town with barely any Jews.
