Our Weekly Announcements,
May 14th
Wishing everyone a very happy Tuesday! The sun is out and let's have a great week! We hope you had a wonderful Yom Hazikaron/Yom Ha'atzmaut celebration yesterday as we celebrated Israel. We had a great time seeing everyone at the APJCC as we sang, danced, drank Limonana and had an amazing time! We've got a jam packed week ahead of you, and we can't wait to see you at one of these many events! Don't forget about the TEAMY's (Temple Emanu-El Annual Meeting) on Sunday, June 2nd! If you'd like to have your photo featured in the slideshow, please email oliver@tempelsanjose.org. Be sure to register in advance so we know much food to provide at the brunch.
