Priority 2: Build Our Jewish Future Here

Temple Emanuel will be known as the place for young adults and families to find joy and meaning in being Jewish.

Many members say that they felt most connected to Temple Emanuel when their children were young. As the cost of living has increased and daycare and education expenses rise, many young families have two working parents with lots of competing priorities. Temple Emanuel aims to make it easier and more attractive for young families to build their Jewish future here.
