A few weeks later, and we’re still feeling the love from Milestones & Momentum, our celebration honoring Rabbi Roz’s 20 years of leadership, compassion, wisdom, and love at Ohef Sholom Temple.

We’re excited to share a small glimpse of the evening here. The link is in the first comment.

On this Memorial Day, we pause to remember those whose lives and sacrifices helped shape the world we share today.
May we honor their memory with gratitude, compassion, and by making the most of the lives we are fortunate to live.
Wishing you a meaningful Memorial Day.

Shabbat arrives.
We step away from the noise of the week and return to reflection, wisdom, and the questions that continue to shape us across generations.
Join us this Friday as we celebrate Alyson Morrissey and her achievement of earning her Executive MA in Jewish Education from Hebrew Union College.
