Help transform the Temple Isaiah kitchen into a center of innovation in honor of Tamar Andrews
We want to extend a special thank you to Mount Sinai Memorial Parks and Mortuaries for their generous grant to help us transform the Temple Isaiah kitchen into a center of innovation in honor of Tamar Andrews’ service to our Preschool and community. Our new kitchen will enable us to provide nourishing snacks and special occasional meals for our preschoolers and staff, hosting cooking classes and demonstrations, and provide countless opportunities for our community to come together over the magic of food.
Temple Isaiah is your home at the intersection of tradition and innovation…and Isaiah’s heart and soul is in our kitchen.
In 2023 – 2024, we are embarking on a kitchen remodel to revitalize and transform our temple kitchen to serve the needs of our congregants, preschool, and community.
Miraculous moments happen in the kitchen — ordinary moments that are in fact extraordinary – and if we are blessed with awareness to understand what we are actually doing when we cook, teach, serve, and host, then we can offer thanks for the opportunity to transform lives, both ours and others.
We welcome you to learn more about how we plan to build and use this space, and how you can play an important role in this pivotal project!
