Just for Fun

TRS Tents

We get it. Temple Rodef Shalom is a big place. But, we know how to bring it down to “fun size.” Do you like to take a hike while learning about local history? Do you love watching good films…and then critiquing them with friends? Are you into researching your family genealogy? Do you use the word “aperture” more than once a day? Then, join a Tent – our small groups initiative aimed at gathering together Temple members who enjoy the same interests, hobbies, sports

Every third Sunday of the month, be on the lookout for a congregational email with all the latest intel on our Tents. Don’t see something you like? Then, put a stake in the ground and claim your own Tent.

Spice & Spark Dinners

It’s Friday afternoon. The weekend looms…full of clothes-folding, grocery shopping, kid schlepping, car washing, homework checking, house cleaning, yard tending…. You need some weekend! And we’ve got the answer! Join a Spice & Spark dinner for Shabbat or Havdalah. It’s your chance to get together with friends or soon-to-be-friends. Good food, good conversation, and an opportunity to relax, kick back, and laugh a little…or a lot! Help us create a guest profile for your Spice & Spark dinner.
