Thank you for being part of our first Simchat Torah on the lot last Sunday! And welcome again to all of our new Shorashim students! If you missed it, we have a mini Torah and honey stick for you at temple.
THIS Sunday, we will offer a special blessing for pets in honor of Parashat Noach (the Torah portion of Noah)! In the spirit of Genesis, the first book of the Torah, the Creation and Noah stories, we will honor all creatures large and small! You are invited to bring a pet, a picture of your pet, or a stuffed animal for our opening blessing time at 9:30 on the parking lot. Pets must stay with parents when kids go to class. (Required: masks for humans and leashes for dogs, BYO chair or stand around the kids).
Please find more details below about upcoming sessions this week. Rabbi Karen & Rabbi Micah

Click below to get to know all of our K-12 teachers! Welcome messages and photos are included along with some curriculum information - more will be provided next week by the rabbis.
Every Sunday morning we need parent volunteers to help especially when children are outside. Due to COVID, students are outdoors as much as possible. We need adults to walk the perimeter around the temple to help with security, and to assist teachers with moving supplies. Get your steps in! Please volunteer for at least one session, thank you.
