NEW AT TEMPLE EMANU-EL

B'ahavah - With Love

Discussing the Blessings and Challenges of Multifaith Families

Welcoming your child’s partner into your family is an exciting and potentially nerve-racking moment in your life. How will they blend in? What will your relationship look like? The moment can be even more nuanced when your child’s partner comes from a different faith or tradition. 

Facilitated by Rabbi Fel, Temple Emanu-El’s newest affinity group, B’Ahavah - With Love, seeks to create a safe and welcoming environment to discuss the blessings and challenges of creating multifaith, multigenerational families.

Matzah Madness: It’s That time of Year....Again

What is it about this holiday that causes grown men to groan, and grown women to hyperventilate? Is this not the hag where we recline, a’ la the Greek symposium, as we discuss the important issues of the day, like recalling our journey from slavery to freedom? Aye, there’s the rub. We are supposed to imagine ourselves as slaves in Egypt. So, to put us in that mindset, some sage elder came up with his idea: Chain yourself to your kitchen, clean and cook, cook and clean…with the rest of the family, the Greek chorus, standing idly by, reminding you that there is a method to this madness.
