Summer Meet & Greet

Under 18 Friendship Circle families spent a wonderful day together at Wightman Park on Sunday to play kickball, play on the playground, tell riddles, color and paint large summer canvases, and jump rope! Lily and Leo kept us running after kickballs during the game as they launched some heavy kicks, and Tamar and Maya had fun getting everyone to participate in some rope jumping. Max was able to keep us all laughing and put our brains to work by sharing some riddles that we all tried to figure out together. At the end of the day, we enjoyed some cookies to celebrate National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day, and it was so nice getting to spend some time in the sun with our members and their families!

I’ve Got Nothing

TwitterFacebookLinkedinPrintemailA WEEKLY TORAH THOUGHT FROM RABBI MORDY So, this week I’m in a bit of a conundrum. There is lots going on from a Jewish perspective (we conclude the Book of Exodus, we are almost exactly between Purim and Pesach) but the Parsha – Pekudei – is pretty repetitious. Moses is commanded by G-d to build the Tabernacle a few… Read More
