Adult Education Committee

The mission of Adult Education is to foster a deeper sense of Jewish identity and community by engaging congregants intellectually and spiritually through a wide variety of learning experiences. Focus areas include Jewish traditions, contemporary developments in Jewish thought and practice, current ethical and social issues and Jewish popular culture. Adult Education also works with other temple constituencies such as Sisterhood, the Peter Daniel Clark Fund, Social Action and the Temple Seniors -The Sages- to sponsor programs and events. The committee has approximately 14 members and meets once a month.
