Shabbat Message from Executive Director Judy Moseley
As we begin the new year, I want to share a wonderful idea with you that was recently shared with me.
Put an empty jar somewhere in your home. Every time something positive happens or something you do touches someone’s life, write a short note about it and put it in the jar.
At the end of the year, empty the jar and see how much you have accomplished. See how much of a difference you have made in people’s lives, how many people you have helped and how many lives your kindness has impacted.
It has been a trying year for all of us. Sometimes we only focus on the difficult things. This new year, I am committed to focusing on the positives. I plan to focus on our Jewish concepts of chesed, acts of loving-kindness; tzedek, justice, and tikkun olam, repairing the world.
My hope is that you will do the same!
Wishing you and your loved ones a happy, peaceful and, most importantly, a healthy new year.

Shabbat Morning Service
Saturdays February 13th March 13th April 10th 9:00 AM
We are excited to be returning to our roots with monthly Shabbat morning service incorporating study, Torah, and Haftarah readings.
If you’re interested in participating with a reading in Hebrew or English contact Kit Haspel (katherinehaspel@gmail.com).
We will be using Mishkan Tefilah for Shabbat and Festivals for our siddur (prayerbook) and will share a digital link during the service. If you would like to borrow a hard copy, you are welcome to pick one up at the Temple office during our regular business hours. Please call and let us know when you will be coming, to insure everyone’s safety.
