Summary
Dear {{first_name}},
There is no Noar this Sunday, November 20th. Our next session (Sunday, December 4th) will be a great one with lots of fun, music, and celebration with Artist-in-Residence, Michelle Citrin. Keep reading for some important announcements -- it's a busy season!
Have you heard about Temple Sinai’s Culture of Belonging (CoB) initiative? We are engaging in a project intended to help us understand what contributes to a sense of belonging and connection to our synagogue community today as well as how we can evolve to sustain and deepen that connection in the years ahead.
We need your opinions and feedback and have scheduled a listening forum focused specifically on Noar parents. We would love for you to join us during this convenient morning session (just after Noar drop-off) to tell us about your experience at Temple Sinai and what you would like to see in the future.
Just drop your kids off at their Noar class and join us in the social hall for this important discussion.

It’s not too late to make a difference this holiday season. Consider adopting a family directly through the CAC here OR donating to the Community Assistance Center’s Holiday Gifts for Kids fund here which will go towards gift cards for kids in the community.
