Havurah Shalom
Are you a little handy, good with diagrams, or just enjoy working outdoors? Come together with a fun group of people to raise the Havurah Sukkah in our courtyard ahead of Sukkot. Bring a drill if you have one, or just a sense of adventure. Not into building things? We appreciate moral support as well. Sign Up on the Volunteering Sign-Up

Havurah Shalom
Just for Havurah members, our Mahjong Group is a fun, social activity that builds community, encouraging new friendships and cementing old ones. And while some of us may play elsewhere as well, we all agreed that restoring its place as an ongoing congregational activity will be a good fit for Havurah and those of us who play or want to learn the game.

Havurah Shalom
Our Havurah Sukkah is a place of meditation, meals, song, and community. Get together with other Havurahniks to make it look fantastic and feel as special to be in as it is. We’ll have special art activities for kids and some tasty finger snacks. Come over and bring your craft on as we decorate the sukkah with paper, fabric and posters to celebrate the Festival of Booths!
