Social Action is central to our Temple's mission.  We share the need to give in a meaningful way and recognize the Jewish mandate to perform acts of loving kindness. 

We reach out to the world to help - and we stay close to home as well, helping members of our congregation who are in need.  We visit each other when someone falls ill.  We pray and grieve together when a death occurs.  We are a small enough congregation to be intimate, yet big enough to make a collective difference in our community.
