Havurot

What is a Havurah?
A Havurah is a group of up to 15 Temple families who gather on a regular basis to socialize, celebrate Shabbat and holidays, and do Jewish things together.

How do I Join a Havurah?
All Temple members are invited to join. Contact the Temple office, 408-358-1751, or email .

Who Runs This Havurah?
Each Havurah is responsible for organizing and carrying out its own gatherings. Typically, each member takes a role in planning and hosting the Havurah's meetings.

What Does the Temple Do?
The board liaison to the Havurot assigns interested congregants to Havurah groups. The Rabbi, Cantor, Educator, and members of the Religious School staff may occasionally be available to facilitate a Havurah's discussion, or to speak on a particular topic.

From time to time, Havurah programs are held at the Temple.

The board liaison convenes meetings, twice a year, of representatives of all of our Havurot.
