High Holy Day Food Baskets
Honor a loved one's memory or celebrate the New Year by dedicating food baskets for the Molish Sanctuary bimah during the High Holy Days. Your dedication can be for Rosh HaShanah, Yom Kippur, or both. All dedications must be made by Friday, August 11.
Due to the current food shortage for those less fortunate than ourselves, we have chosen this option in lieu of flowers. Following the High Holy Days, these baskets will be donated to local food pantries.

Judicial Overhaul in Israel
The Union for Reform Judaism recently hosted a Webinar on the passage of the first law overhauling the judicial system in Israel. The recording of the webinar can be foundhere. We are grateful to MK Rabbi Gilad Kariv, Orly Erez-Likhovski, Anna Kislanski and Yair Lootsteen, our partners on the ground, for joining us and sharing their firsthand insights and strategy around this significant time.
This moment is about saving both democracy and Zionism in the State of Israel and for the Jewish people. We are called to increase our efforts and show our support and commitment.
Here is a list of what you can do today to show your support:
Make a charitable donation to the URJ's Israel efforts (click here)
Print protest materials to show your solidarity with Israel at this time (click here) and subscribe to the IRAC's Pluralist (click here).
For additional resources and background on the 'reasonableness' bill click here.
We need YOU to help us mobilize our Reform Movement to act in support of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state.
