When the American Jewish University studied the success of Valley Outreach Synagogue, one of the strengths that it found in our congregation was our strong network of havurot, friendship groups. We have havurot for all ages and most interests. If you would like to join a havurah or to start a new one, please contact Emily Kaplan at emkapn@hotmail.com or Judy Livingston at judy11660@aol.com.
For more information, click on the Outreach, our monthly newsletter.
Join us at 6:30, prior to Shabbat services for stories, music, crafts and Shabbat fun!
Cantor Ron, Laurie Levinson, Pablo Kupersmid and Ken Gootnick led a dozen teens from our community to Cantel, a poor Mayan community in the mountains of Guatemala. The experience was extraordinary and taught all at VOS that outreach not only impacts the recipients but profoundly impacts the givers as well. Read articles in the Jewish Journal, Tribe Magazine and the Acorn to learn more about this experience.
We are delighted to welcome Carla Adivi, our new program director. Carla comes to VOS - JEWELS with a strong background in leadership, education and community building. She has been on board since the start of the school year and has been welcomed with open arms.
