Sinai Temple Chavurot

What is a Chavurah? A Chavurah (chavurot is plural) is a group of approximately 12 to 16 Temple members who gather on a regular basis to share Jewish experiences, study, celebrate life and spend time together.

Who can join? All Temple members are invited to join. Just fill out the online application. If you do not wish to submit the application form online, you will find a copy in the September Temple Bulletin or you can print out the form and send it to the Temple Office.

Are there different kinds of Chavurot? Chavurot may consist of families, individuals on their own, or couples. Some may be limited to a given age group. Other Chavurot can include a diverse cross-section of the congregation. One Chavurah may concentrate on Jewish study, while another may mostly celebrate and socialize.

Who runs the Chavurah? Each Chavurah will be autonomous. The Chavurah will organize its own leadership. Temple member, Heather Sullivan will be the Chavurah Coordinator. She will be receiving the applications and completing the matching process that will create the Chavurot. There is a Chavurah committee that will be working with Heather to make sure each group is running smoothly.

Questions? If you are interested but not sure about the Chavurot, please attend an informational meeting on Wednesday, October 5th at 7:30. You can also contact Heather Sullivan by e-mail or 736-3619 ext. 13.

The Chavurah Program is made possible by gifts in memory of Peter Roth
