The 2011 Temple Emanuel Congregational Retreat is our opportunity to reconnect - re-connect with family, with our friends, and with our community. There are sessions for all, from activities for adults to fun dedicated to children.
This is all in addition to uplifting t'filah, full of soul, full of love, full of music, full of questions, and even some answers. Shabbat in the woods - a chance to remind us of who we really are.
