From little artists painting their way into Chanukah with Family Experience, to raising a rainbow glass in gratitude with our incredible Challah Bake committee, these moments capture what happens when people show up with heart. Joyful scenes, meaningful connections, and a whole lot of love.
From post-Shabbos glow to pre-Shabbos prep, this week was packed with inspiration. We kicked things off with our Falling Into Light Havdallah Party—a warm, musical send-off to Shabbos with our Family Experience community. Then we caught Rabbi Dov Ber Cohen behind the scenes as he got ready for a full weekend of learning, connection, and beautifully catered meals.

Our Olami Young Professionals got a real treat — a cozy evening in the home kitchen of our own Chef Cheryl Leban! Together they learned how to prepare a melt-in-your-mouth brisket and delicious side dishes perfect for Shabbos or holiday tables. It was a night of great food, hands-on learning, and the kind of connection that makes every meal taste even better.
