Youth Engagement

“It is a tree of life to all who grasp it, and whoever holds on to it is happy;
its ways are ways of pleasantness, and all its paths are peace.” (Proverbs 3:17-18)

 

Youth Engagement 

One of our priorities at Temple Sholom is to offer opportunities for our young people to meaningfully connect with each other, the synagogue, and with the broader community.
