It was fun to see so many of you at the MACC last night, and I saw more of you in the crowd. It was a fun movie, and if you haven't seen it...I recommend watching Tango Shalom. I hear it's on Amazon Prime.
Rabbi Raanan will be out of the office July 18 - August 3. He will continue to be available by email at rabbi@mauijews.org. Ellyn is here if anything comes up I can help with.
Family Shabbat Service Led by Rabbi Raanan and Josh Kalkstein
It was a fun morning with a short service and a delicious kiddush presented by Stacey and Josh Kalkstein and family.
The children were engaged in learning new prayers, participating in the service, and of course, playing after the service so the adults could enjoy themselves too.
We look forward to having more in the future and encourage people to join for a fun morning and a great time to learn a little bit about some the paryers who know or don't yet know.
Membership continues to come in...I appreciate everyone who is sharing this vision with us and who is supporting this hard work. Toda, mahalo, and thank you!!!
It’s membership renewal time! This is when we ask you to reflect on the value of having a pluralistic, egalitarian, community-centered synagogue on our little, remote island.
What does that even mean?
Support of the Jewish life of your choosing- without judgment
We don’t talk about levels of observance
No one is “more Jewish” than anyone else
Girls, Boys, LBGTQ+ have equal access to the Torah and lifecycle events
Welcoming to all with a flexible dues plan
Preserving meaningful traditions and open to creating new ones
A voice in the direction your community is heading
Children of paternal lineage are equally Jewish
Contemporary and Traditional teachings
A progressive cemetery
