Exciting news, everyone! 🇺🇸

For the first time in American history, the President of the United States has officially proclaimed a National Shabbat — Shabbat 250 — to honor America’s upcoming 250th birthday!

This historic call comes as part of Jewish American Heritage Month. From sundown Friday, May 15 through nightfall Saturday, May 16, the White House is encouraging Jewish Americans — and friends, families, and communities of all backgrounds — to observe a day of rest, reflection, gratitude, and connection with the Almighty.

It’s a beautiful reminder of the religious freedom that makes this country so special, and a powerful way to give thanks for 250 glorious years of American independence during the Rededicate 250 weekend of prayer, praise, and thanksgiving.

How can you participate?

- Light Shabbat candles

- Share a meaningful meal with family and friends

- Unplug, rest, and reflect

- Express gratitude for our nation and its blessings

- Invite others to join — whether they’re Jewish or simply want to experience a day of peace and renewal

This isn’t just for one community — it’s an invitation for all Americans to pause and appreciate what unites us.

Who’s joining Shabbat 250 this weekend? Drop a 🙌 or comment below and let us know how you’re planning to observe it! Tag friends and family to spread the word.

Together, let’s make this a meaningful and uplifting Shabbat for our nation.

High Holidays 5786 - An Invitation to Our Community's Services

You're Invited: Rosh Hashanah & Yom Kippur Services - Building Community Together

As we approach the High Holidays of 5786, we are honored to extend this personal invitation to you to join us for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur services.

A New Chapter in Our Journey

This year marks an important evolution in our community's growth. After much reflection and planning, we have made the decision to transition from our previous open-door format to a more intimate, invitation-based gathering limited to 40 participants. This change reflects our commitment to building a sustainable, deeply connected community where meaningful relationships can flourish and our shared spiritual journey can be nurtured with intention.

We want to be clear that this shift is not about exclusion—we deeply believe that every person deserves a place to pray and connect during these sacred days. Rather, this focused approach allows us to create the foundation for a thriving, long-term community that can better serve our members and, in time, expand our capacity to welcome even more people in the years ahead.
