2024 Congregational Picnic

We went up Green Mountain to the Nature Trail, we enjoyed the pretty green trail, the pond with ducks, geese, turtles, and fish, and the pavilion was a good place to enjoy the view. The company wasn’t bad, either!

Lag B’Omer, 2024

A cookout, games, and a nice afternoon made for a fun Lag B’Omer event at EC this year!

Israel’s 76th Yom HaAtzmaut &

Rabbi Listfield’s 50th Year as a Rabbi!

We enjoyed a delicious brunch sponsored by the Roberts Family in Memory of Ted Roberts.  Afterward, we celebrated Rabbi Listfield’s 50th anniversary of his rabbinical ordination, and we also had the IDF liaison speak to us about Israel today.

Purim, 2024

We had over 65 people join us for our Purim Shpiel, a short Service, and the Hot Dog Supper. The Sphiel’s producers and cast did a wonderful job. The youngest actors, the ladies of the pageant, were especially adorable!

Family Mitzvah Day

Our Family Mitzvah Day was a huge success! After a brief service, we painted rocks to give to loved ones; wrote letters to IDF soldiers; cleaned toys in our children’s room; made pizzas for our participants; and drew designs on fabric to create a community quilt. Thanks to all who joined in these activities and those who helped organize and volunteer at the various stations. A meaningful and productive day!
