Fall ‘25/Winter ‘26

Dear TBE Family,

As we celebrate the changing seasons and welcome the holiday season here at TBE, our doors are open every Friday evening for Shabbat services as always, and I’m excited to say that in November we resumed our Second Saturday/Shabbatstock services for 2025-26.

New this year to this amazing way to spend your Shabbat morning, we have added the Shuk – a farmers market – with local vendors. This is one of my favorite events on our calendar, when we are blessed with the musical gifts of our Temple Executive Director, our Religious School Director, and their band – JewGrass Revival – on the second Saturday of every month from November-May, not to mention our magnificent campus that allows us the beautiful outdoor space to do it. Bring friends, both human and furry – all are welcome!

This season, I am thankful for our TBE families and our exceptional clergy and staff. Walking into TBE feels like home to me, and I welcome everyone to experience the same feeling. A warm hello is always here for you!

December is going to be a magical month, with our Shabbanukah celebration on December 19th. Last year was such a success that we are bringing Shabbanukah back this year, and we invite everyone to join us for the warmth of the candle lighting on the front lawn, a scrumptious dinner, and then a Shabbat service for all ages. This is also a fundraiser, and it would be wonderful if members, businesses, and friends would consider becoming sponsors or donating to this event.

Rabbi and our auxiliaries also have awesome events to look forward to in the coming months, so please check your Trending every week for updates.

As we approach 2026, I wish everyone a wonderful holiday season and a Happy New Year!
