Mahalo Nui Loa!
During a recent trip to the Mainland, Kalo had the delightful chance to connect with two families who vacationed on Maui and attended Shabbat service at JCM a few weeks back.
Edwin and Deborah Harris originally hail from St. Louis,MO but relocated to Southern California a decade ago. Ed,a Rabbi and Psychologist runs his practice in Santa Monica, while Deborah serves as a Chaplin at Holy Cross Medical enter in Mission Hills.Together, they co- founded the Playa Vista Jewish Center. Kalo spent a lovely afternoon at their favorite lunch spot getting to know each and discussing the possibility of Ed to assist with High Holidays.
Sheldon and Emily Lodmer who founded the Malibu Jewish Center and Synagogue have been regular visitors to Maui for over 25 years Their recent trip was particularly special as three generations of the Lodmer family got to spend it together.
Kalo attended her first Shabbat on the Beach with Sheldon and Emily where she was warmly welcomed by members of the Malibu Jewish Center and Synagogue who showed empathy for the people of Maui as they experienced their own devastation during the Malibu Woolsey Fires in 2018.
Following a heartfelt joyous service, the Lodmers gave a tour of their home, which had been beautifully renovated after the fires. Their story can be found on page 49 of Malibu Times, accessible through this link: https://issuu.com/colonymagazine/docs/mtm_home23_november_3663fcd3acf6 6d.
Mahalo to the Harrises and Lodmers for their gracious hospitality towards Kalo, their donations that help sustain JCM, enabling it to serve both Jewish residents and visitors, and most importantly, for sharing the spirit of Aloha.
We look forward to their next visit to Maui and their return to JCM.

Dear JCM Members and Community,
Thank you so much for being a member, past member, or part of the general community of Jewish Congregation of Maui. I am writing to ask that you please renew your membership, or join as a new member, today. Our Summer Membership Drive ends August 18th and tickets to High Holidays are included with your membership.
At this time of year, as we renew our memberships, or perhaps join for the first time, we remember that it is you – our members and your contributions, both financial and service, on-island and off-island – that keep our doors open and our programs running, and allow us to be a light to our Maui community.
We have had a highly successful year transitioning to a lay-led community organization, with wonderful Shabbat services, Passover Seder, ongoing site improvements, and the excellent work of our Executive Director Kalo Yujuico and our engaged team of board members and volunteers. In the year ahead, we hope to share more moments, observances, and celebrations with you. Please join us for a pop-up social for members and new members Sunday, July 28 5-6pm, directly following our July board meeting. Come join us and let’s talk story.

Saturday evening 5:30 Michael and Cynthia will host Rabbi Lev for a Havdalah service filled with songs, stories and prayers. An oneg will precede Havdalah. Bring your favorite salad!

Last Shabbat service we were blessed with wonderful surprises, making it a truly joyful occasion. Rabbi Ken was joined by Barbara Singer and Ernesto Peraza, and we were graced with a visit from Rabbi Rikki, the Executive Director of Temple Emanu-El on Oahu, and her husband Yoshi who led kiddush. Additionally, our Israeli Dance Teacher, Paula Wolk, joined us. Your prayers for her recovery are much appreciated. Although she is back on her feet, she still needs more time to heal before she can return to teaching classes.
Mahalo to everyone who attended. If you weren't able to make it to our previous services, we would be delighted if you could join us for our upcoming services.
