Upcoming Programs
Wednesday, June 4 at 11:00am
Due to unforeseen circumstances, Dr. Jason Mitchell is no longer able to join us.
Rabbi Lexi Erdheim will lead us in creating our own liturgical playlists. Afterward, we’ll enjoy a deli lunch featuring pastrami and corned beef sandwiches, potato salad, coleslaw, fruit salad, and dessert.
After lunch, SPICE Chair Barak Francis will now lead the session and guide a conversation on how pop music evolved from the swing era to the rise of rock and roll, with reflections on the cultural and social shifts that shaped the sound of a generation.
Register by Sunday, June 1.
Senior-to-Senior Program
At Temple Beth El, we believe in the power of community. Our Senior-to-Senior program brings together older congregants with caring volunteers for regular companionship visits. Through these visits, we foster meaningful relationships, reduce isolation, and strengthen the bonds between generations. Whether you’re looking for a friendly conversation, a shared activity, or just someone to check in on you, our Senior-to-Senior program is here to support you.
If you’re a Temple Beth El member seeking companionship or a volunteer looking to make a difference, we invite you to sign up today!
