Renovation Update: September 10

Monday, September 13, 2021

Renovation update: Work has started on framing walls, HVAC duct work has been added, and new windows have been installed throughout the building. We dug into Gregory Blvd. to install our new water line pipe for the building water supply and also to supply water to our fire sprinkler system. A much needed roof hatch has been added so we can now access the roof without the use of a very tall ladder. Finally, a hole was cut into the roof so our elevator would have enough clearance.

Rabbi Levinsky Sermon: December 5

Jacob’s most powerful moment is not the dream itself, but what he does when he wakes. Alone, afraid, and uncertain, he touches heaven—and then he returns to the ground. He takes an ordinary stone and turns it into a marker of responsibility. Jewish spirituality never ends in vision alone. Ascent matters only if it brings […]
