Join us for High Holidays 5783 // 2022!
The synergy of the organic seasons and the Jewish calendar is deep and touching. In this season of equinox, we enter the moon of Libra/Scales and the Jewish new year. We begin again, again. We seek balance in our lives, our communities, our planet. At Temple Israel, we greet the season with indoor and outdoor gatherings for all ages – to celebrate creation and grow as individuals and community.
