Bar Mitzvah of
Allen Shay Barden
Join us Saturday morning for Shabbat service as Allen Shay Barden becomes a Bar Mitzvah.
For his Mitzvah Project, Allen created care kits for unhoused individuals. He researched the items that were beneficial to people without secure housing, and then created kits that can be kept in and distributed from your car if you see someone in need. These kits will be available in the front lobby of the synagogue after kiddish on Saturday, October 25th for congregants and guests to take.
Mazel Tov to the Bardens!

Your help is needed to fight the ugliness. Across America, we are witnessing an alarming rise in anti-Zionist and anti-Jewish demonstrations, especially on college and university campuses. Perhaps such events have occurred at your alma mater. As a concerned alum, you can raise your voice and urge university leadership to counter antisemitism. Equally important, you can also thank university administrators who are fighting to keep the campus free from discrimination, hate, violence, and antisemitism.





Dear AA Community,
The Ahavath Achim Refugee Initiative (AARI) is proud to partner with New American Pathways for their Back-to-School Supply Drive! As the new school year approaches, we have a meaningful opportunity to help refugee students start off strong. For many of these children, having the right school supplies isn't just helpful—it's essential. It's the first step toward academic success and confidence in the classroom.
