Mazel Tov to Temple Sholom’s East Side Jews program!
Temple Sholom was one of eight winners from all across North America of the 2015 Union for Reform Judaism’s Belin Outreach and Membership Awards.
The selection committee felt East Side Jews was an exceptional example of how a community can welcome and engage people in new and creative ways. Temple Sholom received $1,000 to continue to support the East Side Jews program, and was formally recognized for this achievement at the 2015 URJ Biennial in Orlando, FL.
Yasher Koach to Rabbi Carey Brown and Lisa Pozin, who run the East Side Jews program, on the incredible work they are doing to reach Jewish families in Vancouver and bring them into the Jewish Tent.
Mazel Tov!

Learn to Chant with Cantor Cohen: Haftarah Trope (Session 3)
Are you interested in chanting Torah or Haftarah, but never learned how? Did you chant Torah at your B’nei Mitzvah, but haven’t done it since? Are you curious about the system of cantillation that has been part of Jewish tradition for centuries?

We will cover why we chant, the origins of cantillation (the system of chanting our sacred texts), and work on practical Torah and Haftarah chanting skills so that you can feel confident chanting Torah or Haftarah at services! Even if you have chanted Torah before but want to brush up on your skills, please join us for this free series. Open to all musical levels.
Upcoming date:
Haftarah trope: Tuesday, August 5 from 6:30-8:00 pm
Prerequisite: You must be able to read Hebrew.

Sholom Shishim Lunch and a Concert: Opera 101
You hear it on TV, in movies, on stage, and even from some buskers in our fine city. We all know opera is everywhere now, but how did that happen?
Join scintillating soprano Chloé Hurst and scruffy baritone Aaron Durand on a 250-year journey through this beautiful art form. Together, we'll explore the first comedic opera, sparkling bel canto music, lush and romantic Czech writing, and so much more. This is Opera 101 Vancouver!
Lunch is hosted by the Jewish Women International Foundation BC (JWI BC), in memory of Sara Ciacci z"l and her legacy of supporting food security in Vancouver. Donations to Temple Sholom's Caring Community Fund, in honour of Sara's legacy, at the time of registration will be greatly appreciated.
Lunch provided by Nava Creative Kosher Cuisine:
OPTION 1: Egg salad sandwiches on soft bread
OPTION 2: Roasted vegetables and hummus on soft bread (Vegan)
Served with orange coleslawFruit platter for dessert
Registration is required to attend as there is limited space available.
