New Family Kol Nidre Service

New this year!  This year we are offering a new Kol Nidre service option for families that would like to attend the Kol Nidre service with their children in a welcoming setting. The service is open to people of all ages, but is targeted to families with children who would ordinarily stay at home that evening.  Please note that this is NOT a children's service like "Torah for Tots" or the Rosh Hashana Family Service.  Children under age 13 must be accompanied by one or more parents, not caregivers.   For more information about this service, click here.
 
Special tickets are required for entry to the service. Seating is limited. To sign up, call the WJC office ASAP.

End of August Update
As the summer slowly comes to a close and the new program year begins, the upcoming events section of the website will once again be very busy.  Check back often to see what is coming up.

In the meantime, committee meetings continue as scheduled, With so many congregants on vacation in the last few weeks of August, it will be difficult to get a minyan.  Please help make a minyan when you are in town.  There are a number of  congregants saying Kaddish and they need a minyan.
