Throughout history, gathering in community has always been at the core of Jewish culture. For Jews in the diaspora, we honor this tradition at the synagogue. When our homeland is under attack, we honor it by supporting Israel and her people. And right now, the best way to support Israel is to visit. For this reason, Rabbi Aaronson will be leading the Temple Judea Solidarity Mission to Israel from March 31 to April 5. This is your invitation to join him.
Temple Judea’s adult B’nei Mitzvah program is an expansive year-long journey, immersing participants in group learning, prayer, study and an exploration of Jewish identity and tradition. It’s a special rite of passage for our TJ adults, each with unique motivations.
Tomorrow night, January 24, begins the celebration of Tu B’Shvat, the new year of the trees. Beyond its agricultural importance, Tu B’Shvat has spiritual and cultural significance as well. Kabbalists see the holiday as a reminder of the divine sparks found within ourselves and in nature as symbolized by the fruit, seeds, and nuts of the land of Israel. Zionists embrace the holiday as a reminder of our deep roots and the wide reach of our cultural branches: the tree as a symbol of the Jewish people’s return to their ancestral homeland of Zion.
In our close-knit community, we show up for one another – for both the oys and the joys! Nowhere is this more true than with Temple Judea’s Caring Community – a group of compassionate volunteers whose main purpose is to support their fellow members through the twists of life's journey, one act of loving kindness at a time.
Prepare for a musical treat as Michael joins our community on Friday, January 19 and Saturday, January 20 for an unparalleled Artist-in-Residence weekend exploring the theme of "Music & Creation."
