Thursday, December 25th - 12:00 AM

Why sit around and wait for the movie theatres to open up? Put your energies and compassion to good use and enjoy the day with your Temple Israel community! We have a variety of projects and activities that will engage you at various levels!

Early risers – We are partnering with Congregation of Reform Judaism and Seniors First of Orange County to deliver Meals on Wheels on Christmas Day.  If you want to participate:

  • She will give you additional information but you should expect to be at CRJ on Thursday morning by 9 am – Deliveries usually take 60 – 90 min.

Beginning at 1:00 pm there will be activities at our synagogue.  All are welcome and there is something for everyone!

  • Write notes to soldiers – both US service personnel and IDF troops
