June 2025

Our Annual Report represents the best in ALL OF US. It is our third time publishing this special annual report which doubles as our June Bulletin. What a spectacular way to end each fiscal year; to see the fruits of our labor all year, because we all sincerely want to help make our Temple the best it can be to serve not only each other, but also those in need within and beyond our community.

Every year the Board of Trustees sets goals and goes about working toward accomplishing them. The Annual Report bears witness to the progress our committees make each year. It’s not just about balancing the budget. It’s about reaching more and more of us with the message that we are all builders of this truly vibrant community. It’s a mitzvah to help organize and run activities and events, but more importantly, it’s a mitzvah to embrace each day despite how difficult the week has been and choose to participate in the community. Sometimes we help each other find solutions to challenges and other times, it’s just great to see each other again, pray for our world, and wish each other well. Please check out the Annual Report when it arrives in your mailbox.

This president’s message is my last for the monthly Bulletin. It has been my honor and pleasure to have served my two-year term as your president. Many thanks to all the members of our Board of Trustees and our Committee Chairs; I am proud of all the wonderful work we collectively accomplished this past year. We continue to improve our Temple life. I am so grateful for the trust you have bestowed upon me and in each other. 

See you at the Annual Meeting on Sunday, June 8 at 10:00.

Board Meeting Highlights from May

  1. Due to a very busy events season, the Board agreed to postpone the progressive dinner until the summer or fall. Thanks to those who have already offered to host. We are looking for more hosts.
  2. A committee was formed to plan some additional Temple summer activities to maintain engagement leading up to the High Holidays.
  3. A Rabbinic Review Committee has been formed. They will present their process plan at the June Board meeting so it will be in place as goals are set for the next year.
