It's the season of giving! From Thanksgiving Feeding the Hungry to the JCFS Holiday Gift Drive to our Chanukah collection, supporting eight different charities - one for each night - we've compiled lots of opportunities to give back. Read more.

COURAGEOUS CONVERSATIONS

What would you do if the person you love became someone else? In his profoundly honest memoir, The Thin Ledge: A Husband's Memoir of Love, Trauma and Unexpected Circumstances, Daniel P. Shapiro shares the reality of living through his wife’s mental and physical decline caused by a devastating illness. Rabbi Steve will sit down with Dan Shapiro for our next installment of Courageous Conversations on Wednesday, November 17 at 7:00pm. ZOOM in at https://www.amshalom.com/courageous-conversations
