Rabbi's message

Why do we choose to be Masortim?

​

In our Temple affiliation, we rarely find ourselves faced with the situation of choosing which Movement within Judaism we identify with. Normally, we go to the synagogue where our parents attended or we pick the one we feel our children will be most comfortable in because more children or school friends already belong to it.

​

The ongoing Jewish life then either shows us some identification with our selection or confronts us with the inequalities of our feelings, as we live each tefilah or community event that we take part of.

Our President's message

It was wonderful seeing the community coming together and celebrating Jewtica! I was honored to work with a wonderful committee and its volunteers. There were countless hours of planning, cooking, setting up, working the event, tearing down and cleaning up. All those involved should be mighty proud of a very successful event.

Our Executive Director's message

Dear Friends,

​

We are again looking forward to a warm, pleasant and relaxing summer. This is a July and August message so we are reminded that the High Holy Days are not very far away. Rosh Hashanah is September 26th and 27th and Yom Kippur is October 5th. It has been a few years since the holidays were so late into the fall. (I like when they fall later).
