Congregation Etz Chayim

For children in Kindergarten and 1st Grade (and sometimes their grown-ups!) Parents and children explore and experience Jewish holidays, history, values, culture, prayer and more through many different avenues including stories, games, art, music and cooking.

Join us to learn firsthand from three young Israelis what life is like in Israel today. The speakers will be talking about what life is like for each of them living in Israel as a Jew, an Arab Muslim, and a Lebanese Christian. Click through for registration and more information on the speakers.

This virtual service will honor those lost in the Shoah, with a special focus on acts of courage by Partisan girls and women. It will include the stories of survivors recorded and presented by local teens; and music, song, and visual art in remembrance. Watch it together with our 7th and 8th grade students and their families in the Beyt Knesset or stream it from home via the JCC website. Click through for links.

Whenever there are five Fridays in a month, we like to do something different and plan a special service based on a musical theme. Join us for “L’Etz the Sunshine In” Shabbat, an ecologically-minded service with songs about celebrating and protecting our precious Earth.
