Temple Shaaray Tefila is sponsoring a "Civil Rights Journey and we hope you can join us!

Rabbi Ross notes: "I have led this trip several times in the past to tour Atlanta, Selma, Birmingham, and Montgomery. It is an educational program that sees the civil rights struggles from a Jewish perspective and meets with those who were personally involved. Please visit Etgar 36, our tour organizer, and see the attached itinerary for information about sites, accommodations, meals and more. Lisa Glenn is working with me on what promises to be an enjoyable, moving, and memorable educational experience. We hope you will come with us. This program is suitable for adults and families and it, initially, is open only to Temple members."
We are excited about the trip and hope you will join us. Please reach out to RabbiRoss@TempleST.org with any questions.
