These were some of the religious leaders who attended an interfaith vigil at Norwalk City Hall on June 17 to remember the massacre at the Pulse Nightclub in Orlando. The vigil supported the LGBTQ community, shared thoughts and prayers for those who were killed, and supported every community impacted by violence and hatred.
Rabbi Bearman: "When the bow is in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures." I've just posted the sermon I gave last Shabbat -
Rainbows Are a Sign of Strength.

End of Year TBC Annual Fundraiser Goal, $20,000
By now each family should by now have received our mailing for the Annual TBC Fundraiser. Our fundraising goal for this year, ending June 30, is $20,000.
Annual fundraising donations are used to support our programs throughout the year at TBC. As with most synagogues, dues alone simply do not cover all our costs. We are asking every family to participate, either by sending a check to the office or by donating online. If everyone participates, we can easily reach our goal!
Please send your donation before June 30, using this form.
