“There was an instant connection between Temple Israel and my family when it came to Jewish rituals, life, and services. Temple Israel is able to break down barriers to make Judaism tangible, meaningful, and personal for us. We love having a strong community to share in our joys and sorrows, and to help us develop a strong foundation of Jewish beliefs through the preschool, holiday events, and services.”
