Bais Hamedrash of Flatbush (BMF) was started in 1976 as a community Shabbos minyan housed in Yeshiva Zichron Meilech of Eastern Parkway. The minyan moved to its current quarters in 1983 and has retained the warmth and earnest devotion to Torah and Tefillah of its founders.
In the following years, as the community grew, the minyan grew along with it into a full time shul with daily minyanim and weekly shiurim. Throughout that time, the shul remained true to its roots, emphasizing Torah Learning, proper decorum during Tefillah and a spirit of achdus and caring for each other.
In 1997, BMF hired its first Rav, Rabbi BenTzion Bamberger. Under his leadership the shul continued to flourish, adding new community programs and shiurim. In 2004, BMF was honored as the Shul of the Year by Partners in Torah in appreciation for the large number of mispalelim who participate in learning with chevrusos all around the country. In 2005 Rabbi Bamberger accepted an opportunity in Monsey.

Harav Zolty offers stimulating shiurim, warm insights and leadership for a bright future as BMF strives to achieve even greater heights in ‘עבודת ה
