Tikkun Leil Shavuot
Tuesday, May 30 7:00 pm at Temple Building Join us as our 10th grader Confirma-tion students have a chance to lead services and be called to the Torah.
This is an uplifting service that marks the anniversary of the giving of the 10 commandments to Moses and the Israelites at Mt. Sinai and celebrates the end of the grain harvest in Israel. As the Jewish people made a covenant with God on this day, so too, our young adults reaffirm their commit-ment to their Jewish heritage. Please join us for this special service and to honor the Confirmation students. As a com-munity we send a hearty mazel tov to the following confir-mation students: Jim DaCosta, Jessica Giordano, Anina Lawrence, Brenna Rioux.
