Torah Fund April 2018

As Jewish women, we are at the very heart of the struggle for Jewish continuity.  Part of the success of every synagogue is related to the strength of its Sisterhood.   When Sisterhoods are strong and growing, our synagogues thrive and sustain communities for future generations.  Most of the core principles that guide us as Conservative Jews are directly connected to Torah and study for ensuring the future of Jewish life.

We are devoted to nurturing Jewish life by strengthening the great institutions of the Conservative Movement, our Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies in Los Angeles, the Jewish Theological Seminary in New York, the Schechter Institute in Jerusalem, the seminary in Buenas Aires and now Potsdam, Germany.   We are blessed in our synagogues with depth of learning, prayer, and acts of kindness that bind us together, with communal leaders who are thoughtful and learned; with children and grandchildren who make us smile; and with the love of family and friends.   Everyone has the opportunity to participate in preserving, promoting, and perpetuating the Conservative movement by giving to the Torah Fund Campaign.   By supporting the Jewish institutes our mission remains the same; educating rabbis, cantors, educators, scholars and future lay leaders that our communities need to energize the vital center of religious life.

For those who have not sent in your pledges, please write a check to Valley Beth Israel Torah Fund.

Again, thank you for your continued support of Torah Fund.
