How good and pleasing it is to sit together in community
Support Us Today Annual Appeal Giving
Since October 7th, it is clear how much the world has changed. Antisemitism is at an all-time high. Israel
faces an existential threat. We are not the same Jewish community that we were a year ago.
Yet, even in these frightening and uncertain times we remain steadfast, united, and committed to our
vision of strengthening Sinai Temple and fortifying a vibrant Jewish future.
We have come together through celebration and hardship. At Sinai Temple, we pray, sing, dance, laugh, cry,
and mourn as one community. We watch our children grow and make lifelong connections. Throughout
this year, many have awakened spiritually and understand the need to plant and deepen their Jewish roots.
These are just a few of the meaningful ways Sinai Temple has anchored each one of us.
Our work, however, is far from over. In fact, we are just beginning. We need your financial contributions
to ensure a strong, joyful Jewish future at Sinai Temple. We are at the helm, providing faithful ties to
Eretz Yisrael and a commitment to Jewish education and Jewish growth. We must continue these
sacred obligations.
As we come together for the High Holy Days, we are reminded of our deep heritage and thriving community.
We stand stronger than ever as we celebrate a new year and secure our future for the next generation.
Sinai Temple remains a beacon of hope, a guiding light which renews our faith in how we play a role in
seeing a brighter tomorrow.
We are one, united community. We are Sinai Temple. We are not going anywhere.
