Renovation Update: June 28

Monday, June 28, 2021

Our NRTomorrow project is moving right along. The back stairwell is now completely open to the main floor. Our office built-ins have been saved and are stored in the religious school classrooms awaiting their re-installment. The former library has been gutted and large black square has been painted on the floor where the elevator will be located. All the hard work has now shifted to the social hall/lower lever. A small backhoe has been brought in to aid in the digging of the elevator pit.

Photos will scroll automatically, or you can use the arrows (< >) below the image to explore the gallery.

No name is given, no reason explained—only bodies wrestling in the dark. Fear rises, pain sharpens, exhaustion presses in, yet Jacob continues the struggle, discovering that growth is […]

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 […]
