JEWISH IDENTITY

By instilling a connection to Jewish tradition, rituals, Torah, history, and Hebrew, we strengthen a student’s Jewish identity.

JEWISH COMMUNITY

By making the temple a second home and building lasting friendships through meaningful conversation, engaging activities, retreats, youth group, travel to Israel, music, and art, we strengthen a student’s place in Jewish Community.

JEWISH FAITH

By participating in the celebration of Shabbat and holidays, learning Jewish prayer and honest exploration of our faith, we strengthen a student’s sense of awe, wonder, and gratitude.

Finding Our Way Home: Rediscovering Judaism in a Complicated World

Sun, Oct 11, 2026 – 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM

A Conversation with Author Sarah Hurwitz on Meaning, Belonging, and Hope In an age of rising antisemitism and difficult conversations about Israel, many of us are asking not only how to defend our Jewish identity—but how to deepen it. How do we reclaim the joy, wisdom, and sense of belonging that have sustained the Jewish people for generations? What kind of Jewish life do we hope to build for ourselves and for our children?Former Michelle Obama speechwriter and bestselling author Sarah Hurwitz brings warmth, humor, and remarkable honesty to these questions. Drawing on her acclaimed books, Here All Along and As a Jew, she explores how Jewish wisdom can help us navigate modern life, strengthen our relationships, and discover a richer, more joyful Jewish identity.Whether you are raising young children, launching teens into adulthood, entering a new chapter, or simply searching for greater meaning, this conversation will leave you thinking, smiling, and inspired.

OBKLA Volunteer Group

Tue, Oct 27, 2026 – 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM

In Los Angeles, 1 in 4 households—about 25%—are experiencing food insecurity. Families who were already struggling are being pushed even further by rising gas prices, higher grocery costs, and the overall cost of living. For many in our city, putting food on the table has become an increasing challenge.

Our tradition teaches that feeding those in need is not just an act of kindness but also a sacred responsibility. We are committed to live this value in a meaningful way by volunteering as a community monthly at OBKLA – A Kitchen with a Mission.

Please join Temple members and clergy to:

· Prepare 300 meals and 600 chocolate chip cookies from scratch under chef directions.

· Build community—both within our synagogue and beyond

· Make a tangible impact through acts of kindness.

We suggest wearing comfortable shoes as we will be standing at stations for about two hours. Water bottles are provided and everyone is invited to sample the cookies made fresh out of the oven. You can learn more about OBKLA here!

We’re excited to offer a special evening for our Isaiah community to cook and share a meal together at OBKLA. Reserving the space for the night, including all food and supplies, costs $1,800. To help make this possible, we are asking participants to contribute $25 each toward the evening. If contributing presents a financial hardship, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Deborah Moses. We want this night to be fully inclusive, and we never want cost to be a barrier to taking part in this shared experience.
