We give a large Todah Rabah to
Karl Frisch
and our JCM Donors
A few months ago, Karl initiated a matching challenge for our community to raise $10,000- and he would match those donations...well, we did it!
So your $10,000 in donations, becomes a $20,000 gift! Mahalo!
As we work to keep our doors open, provide the vibrant and welcoming shul we all want, and attract a new Rabbi, it is more important than ever to join and donate. Without you, we will not make it to Hanukkah...join, donate- or do both!

Tu B'Av is the holiday of love...
We are holding a special Shabbaton weekend with visiting Rabbi, Shalom Bochner. As we embark on the search for our next leader, this is a great opportunity to see the possibilities- maybe Rabbi Bochner is our next Rabbi? Come meet him and his family and see how he fits in Judaism on Maui. If you don't come, you'll never know. After his visit we'll want to know your thoughts...
Be part of of any one event, or the whole weekend. We're confident if you come Friday night, you'll be back on Saturday- so block the whole weekend to be safe!

A Message from The President:
I invite you to come help us create the future of the Jewish Congregation of Maui.
On August 15-18 we are hosting a visiting Rabbi for a series of events centered around Tu B’Av: the Jewish holiday of Love. Rabbi Shalom Bochner will be visiting us from Congregation Beit Shalom of Modesto, CA. You can read more about Rabbi Shalom here
This is the first of a series of visiting Rabbi events organized by the Rabbi Search Committee. Visiting Rabbi events are an opportunity to experience different leadership styles in our “home”, to see what inspires us and engages us in different ways. The goal is to create a discussion about who will ultimately be a good fit to lead our diverse community into the future.
Join us for one or all of these Tu B’Av Shabbaton events. You can see a full description :
Thursday August 15: An informal vegetarian potluck at the home of Janine Holstein. Meet Rabbi Shalom, sing soulful songs together, learn about Tu B’Av - the Jewish Holiday of Love.
Friday August 16: An Evening of Nourishment for the Body and Soul . Musical Kabbalat Shabbat followed by Shabbat Dinner and Tisch. (“tisch” is a traditional Hasidic festive Friday evening gathering to share song, words of wisdom, stories, and food)
Saturday August 17: 9:30 Shabbat Morning services. Come experience a Shabbat morning service that will touch your soul. Followed by Kiddush light lunch and Torah study that will engage your mind and your heart.
6:00 Family-friendly Shabbat Third Meal and Havdalah. Stories and songs, food and fun for all ages.
If you want a voice in the future of JCM, please plan on joining us for at least one of these events. If you want to experience what the future of JCM could look like, plan on joining us for all of them!
