We began the celebration of our members Through the Decades at Temple Emanuel in 2023 by honoring our members who joined our community from the 1940s through the 2020s. In 2024, we went on to celebrate Travelers with our community, B’nei Mitzvah from the 1950s to 1990s and Adult B’nei Mitzvah from the 1970s through the 2000s. In 2025, we honored all of our B’nei Mitzvah who had their Bar or Bat Mitzvah during Covid – from March 14, 2020 through May 29, 2021 – and celebrated the 59 B’nei Mitzvah and their families with our entire community. We also welcomed our shul year’s 100 New Members. And, the celebration continues this year!
Join us on April 25, 2026 as we continue to honor our members Through the Decades as part of our Celebration of Temple Emanuel’s 90th! We will celebrate all of our members who joined our community in 1990, honor all of our members who are in their 90s, and welcome all of our New Members who joined our community this shul year as we celebrate Temple Emanuel’s 90th!
If that includes you, look for your invitation to celebrate with us at Through the Decades Shabbat on April 25 and plan to be with us so we can honor you!
If it does not include you, join us on this special Shabbat to celebrate our community.
Festive kiddush to follow!
