Interfaith Open House

Website Editor • Mar 12, 2019

Our congregation is a member of Aiken Interfaith Partners, a coalition of faith groups committed to increasing religious understanding and tolerance in our community. January is Interfaith Harmony month in South Carolina and during this month we participate in an Interfaith Open House that allows community members to come to the Synagogue to see the sanctuary and learn about Jewish religious practices as well as about the history and contributions of our local Jewish community. This event also enables our congregants to visit other faith institutions to learn about their religious practices and meet members of these congregations. The most recent Interfaith Open House was on Saturday January 21, 2023 and the next one will be on January 13, 2024. Check back here for more information on this and other Interfaith events

ANTISEMITISM PROGRAMMING

By Website Editor • 12 Mar, 2019

We helped develop and lead a two part series of programming on Anti-Semitism on May 10th and May 24th, 2023. This programming was facilitated by representatives of the ADL and the Charleston Jewish Federation and created in conjunction with the Jewish Community Legacy Project (JCLP). The program was delivered via Zoom to a cohort of 22 small congregations across the Carolinas that was established by the JCLP. You can view the programs by clicking the links below. Also check back here for future programming planned by JCLP's Carolina region of Small Congregations.
