Pre-Onegs & Summer Shabbat Services

As we move from Spring to Summer, we too are moving our Worship Service time. 

For the months of June, July, and August, all Friday evening Shabbat Services (including Folk Services) will be held at 6:00pm. A Pre-Oneg will be held before each service beginning at 5:30pm.  No Oneg will follow services during the summer months.

If you have any questions, please contact the Temple office.

Assistance needed for a Member Family
Can you help_

There are times in our lives when friends and family ask, "What can I do to help out?" The answer is usually to help them with a meal. When many friends give a meal, this is a Meal Train.  The Weissberger Family has requested meal assistance since bringing home their new born son, Felix.  If you can help by providing a meal for them one evening, please click the image to be linked to the Meal Train website.

Thank you for assisting our fellow member family in this way!
