Let’s Join Together – Virtually!
Temple Beth Tikvah is a remarkable community of incredible individuals and we are blessed to have each other particularly during a pandemic. While there is no substitute for a really big hug, we are grateful for our virtual gatherings that enable us to see each other, chat and listen, sing, pray, learn and grow. Now, we have more opportunities for TBT members to come together online to learn and share and socialize. Check our calendar for upcoming online events. If you’d like to attend any of our events email templebethtikvah@gmail.com.

While I have enjoyed the past month of colder weather, snow showers (postponing a Seder!) and extra special ski days, I have to admit I am more than ready for spring! I love seeing the trees start to bloom in our yard, and I can’t wait to start gardening. With the arrival of spring, I feel a renewed sense of comfort and a yearning for social gatherings. With that in mind, there are a few events to share with you.

I thought March came in like a lion and out like a lamb, but this year it was clearly the month of April. Wow. I thought I was so smart suggesting Temple Beth Tikvah celebrate Passover with a picnic to mitigate against Covid anxiety and exhaustion. Many synagogues throughout the world did the same. A congregation I know well in Auckland, New Zealand, posted photos of their synagogue seder picnic just as I was waking up to our winter storm. Aaaargh. Someone commented on my social media post bearing witness to blizzard winds and snow April 16th: “People plan, God laughs.”
