Adult Group Gathers for Warm Weather Activities
SOUTH ORANGE, N.J., June 16, 2016 – The (Re)Connection Group from Temple Sharey Tefilo-Israel (TSTI) enjoyed a hike along the trails at South Mountain Reservation in South Orange recently. The group, for adults in their mid-forties and up, gets together several times a year for conversation and informal fun, from barbeques and cocktail parties to hikes and dinners out. These events give these members of the Reform synagogue the chance to reconnect with each other or develop new friendships at a period in their lives when they have more time for community and activities. It is one of the many ways TSTI seeks to bring its community together based on the different interests and age groups among its diverse membership, and foster a deeper connection to the synagogue.
Temple Sharey Tefilo-Israel (TSTI), located at 432 Scotland Road in South Orange, is a vibrant, inclusive Reform congregation that welcomes Jews by birth or by choice, interfaith, traditional and non-traditional families, and children of all abilities. It offers lifelong learning and creative, enriching programs for all members, from preschoolers and teens to older adults. Its full complement of religious services, early childhood and religious school education, cultural programs and activities foster connection, engagement, and community outreach. TSTI’s members live in Maplewood, South Orange, West Orange, Short Hills, Millburn, Livingston, and surrounding areas. For more information, please visit www.tsti.org.
