We are thrilled to announce our new youth program -Â KULANU!
Happy Lefton (past Board Director and retired school principal) is leading this program to engage our children in fun and joyfoul Jewish activites to create friendships and just have fun being Jewish.
The first session will be Sunday, August 22 at 10:30am with Rabbi Daniel Lev.
Registration will begin on Wednesday.
I’m honored and excited to share that JCM was selected to participate in Nitzavim HawaiÊ»i, a new initiative designed to turn leadership into collective action, delivering positive change within the local Jewish community and HawaiÊ»i at large.Â
JCM leadership is working daily to make the best decisions to keep our community safe. Decisions we may make in our personal lives aren't always appropriate for a business that serves a wide demogrpahic, like ours.Â
We follow CDC recommendations and local mandates...currently, we require masks worn inside at all events and not at outside events - no matter your vaccination status. We request if you are unvaccinated you wear a mask all all events.
As we look towards an event with Rabbi Daniel Lev and the High Holidays, we are looking at a combination of outdoor and streaming services for both. It is hot and windy in Kihei during the day, even under an expensive tent with road and construction noise, so there is no clear "best idea."Â
As soon as final decisions are made, we will let you know...
What we know: Sam, Shayna, Sandra, and Cantor Neumann are planning a full and robust holiday for all of us!

JCM is working to be paper free!
While the building wasn't in use, Ellyn went through the files to consolidate and digitize. Not only is it better for the environment, but our office and building are cleaner without the old papers and file cabinets. By not sending out paper notices, we are saving maoney on paper, envelopes, and postage and you have the benefit of easily seeing past newsletters and emails. We know it can be a learning curve for some to get used to finding all the info online... thank you for taking the time to help us streamline our business practices to be more efficient and eco-friendly.

https://us02web.zoom.us/j/5284619173?pwd=cUtkYnQwblUzTzRYajhBY2RWamxkUT09 Tuesday, May 18 7:00pm Class with Sam S. Mitzvot (Divine Commandments) What are the mitzvot? Where do they appear in the Torah? What is their interpretation? What is their purpose? How have they been a basis for a Jewish life throughout the generations? How can they apply in our lives, how they can inspire us, and what opportunities can they give us to feel a sense of connection? We will look together at some of the sources and think about their meaning and relevance. Sam plans to start with a general discussion of what mitzvot are and why they are important. Â
Friday, May 21 8:30am Parsha Class with Sam S. 6:15pm Musical Kabbalat Shabbat led by Cynthia Lebowitz Cynthia will be joined at her home by Barbara and Ernesto for a lively welcome to Shabbat.Â

Shavuot (Feast of Weeks) commemorates the revelation of the Torah on Mt. Sinai to the Jewish people, and occurs on the 50th day after the 49 days of counting the Omer. Shavuot is one of the three biblically based pilgrimage holidays known as the shalosh regalim. It is associated with the grain harvest in the Torah.
We hope your Shavuot is filled with delicious food, new knowledge, and deep meaning. Chag Sameach!
