Did you catch those radiant smiles at our Back to Shul Shabbat?  Hear the joyful sounds of reunion? Feel the heartwarming embrace of friends and family? It was an incredible night! Don't let that “Back to Shul” spirit fade away. As we inch closer to Selichot and the start of the 5784 High Holy Day season, let’s harness this time of reflection to supercharge our connections – with each other, our faith, and ourselves. 

Temple Judea isn’t just a synagogue; it’s your second Jewish home. Hungry for more connection? Dig in! One of the best ways to build connections is to reach out and get involved! Attend an event, volunteer, explore our clubs and auxiliary groups, pop into an Erev Shabbat service, or become part of a lively havurah. These are the ingredients to creating your incredible TJ family while discovering more about yourself along the way! 

Speaking of family, your Temple Judea clergy is always here to support your family’s spiritual needs! From weddings and baby namings to hanging a mezuzah in your new home, they transform these moments into meaningful family rituals while deepening your connections to Jewish tradition at the same time.
