This visit, Rabbi David will lead services on both Friday evening and Saturday morning, focusing on reflecting on last year's events and moving forward together towards a hopeful and brighter future.

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.
Any changes and additions will be posted on the website calendar.
