Happy 5778!

We want to remind parents that there will be Youth Services for all children ages 12 months to teens on Yom Kippur (this Saturday!).  Youth Services run from 10:30-1:00, and for parents who wish to stay in services after 1:00, there will be babysitting for students in grades K-6.  Information can be found on the JJCJax.org site (see Events below).  

Did you know...?

Sunday morning will be our Sukkah Decorating Party!  Drop off is at 10:30 and pick-up is at 12:00, in the Day School lobby as always.  This counts as a regular (albeit shorter!) day of Religious School.  We encourage parents and siblings to join us in the Goldman Sukkah at this time as we make and hang decorations, read stories, and enjoy a   mitzvah! The Hebrew word mitzvah literally means commandment, but it has also come to mean a good deed.  Hiddur means to make beautiful. Hiddur mitzvah, then, is a commandment to make things beautiful while doing good.  That is why we work so hard to decorate the Sukkah! 

Wishing all a L'shanah Tovah U'metukah (A sweet new year),

B'Shalom,
