YOUR COMMUNITY - ENGAGE WITH US
At The Temple, we believe that every life has meaning and purpose, and our mission to find that meaning through being in relationship – with each other, with our tradition, with our Jewish community, and with God. Whether we meet together for our MLK Shabbat celebration of 1,500 people or in small groups of 8-12 people, we have the opportunity to learn to learn, to grow, to cry, and to laugh together.

Wednesday, Jan 27th 6:30p to 7:30p
Join in our celebration of Tu B’Shvat, the Jewish New Year of the trees. We will partake in the different fruits and grains native to the Land of Israel, known as the “Seven Species” and enjoy a mixing of the wines, a symbol for blending our own needs with those of our communal sustainability. A short shopping list will be provided to all who register. This celebration of our relationship to nature is also a call to action. It is a time of education and reflection to look at our impact on the world around us and consider our role towards shmirat ha’adamah, protecting our planet. During this time we will also engage with each other in small group discussion for reflections on our personal connection to the land. Zoom. -
