Our congregation is committed to doing mitzvot. When we do mitzvot it is not only because we have a desire to help others or because it feels good. We do mitzvot because we are commanded to by God.
Throughout the course of the year we have different mitzvah projects:
- Habitat for Humanity
- Clothing drives
- Green Team Environmental Committee
- Twice monthly visits to the Lighthouse Soup Kitchen where food is prepared and served to over 100 people
- Save Darfur Committee
The following Sundays are the TSTI Soup Kitchen dates:
Interested families should contact
...and please include the date you are interested in and the number of people attending. Please no children under 7 years old.
So how does a mitzvah project happen at Temple?
- If you have an idea about a project that would be great for Temple that you want to facilitate, please contact Jackie Cutler, our Mitzvah Maven, and she will help you organize the project and make it happen.
