Would you like to sponsor an Oneg Shabbat reception?

Following our Shabbat service we gather for an Oneg reception to celebrate the “Joy of Sabbath”.*

We encourage you to sponsor an Oneg by reserving a date with the Oneg committee. You may prepare the food yourself or cover the cost of the Oneg by writing a check for $35 payable to Temple Israel.

*Please note we do not have Onegs in the summer when we only serve challah, wine, and juice. These items are always provided by the Temple.

Would you like to sponsor Shabbat flowers for the bimah?

You may sponsor the flowers on the bimah by contacting Betty Stern to reserve a date. The cost of sponsorship is $40 by check made payable to Temple Israel Sisterhood. Please note: we don’t have flowers at summer services.
