Services at Temple Emanu-El feature an evolving blend of traditional and contemporary approaches, time-honored and innovative songs, prayers in Hebrew and English, and community sharing.

Our primary weekly gathering is Friday, 6:00pm-7:00pm, to welcome Shabbat.

Our monthly Family Shabbat services (on the first Friday each month at 5:30pm) are followed by dinner and arts & crafts for kids.

Summary:
Monday, Dec 15th 7:00p to 8:00p
The Names by Florence Knapp is a novel that follows three alternate timelines of a family, all stemming from the mother Cora's decision on whether to name her newborn son after his abusive father, Gordon, or another name. Spanning 35 years, the story explores how the choice of name—Gordon, Bear, or Julian—significantly alters each character's life path and ability to break cycles of domestic violence and trauma. The book is praised for its exploration of generational trauma, identity, and the profound impact of small decisions.
