This year marks the 39th year we have a shared interfaith service on Thanksgiving Eve with First United Methodist Church (2111 Camino del Rio South, San Diego, CA 92108). The service will be held at First United Methodist Church. Acting Senior Rabbi, Rabbi Cantor Bernstein, will speak and our combined choirs will sing. A reception will follow the service.

FOOD DRIVE FOR MAMA’S KITCHEN

Together with the First United Methodist Church, we will collect food to benefit Mama’s Kitchen, a support organization for those living with HIV/AIDS. Mama’s Pantry, a program of Mama’s Kitchen, provides a nutritional shopping opportunity at no cost for men, women, and children of San Diego County affected by HIV/AIDS.

We will be collecting food all month of November, there will be a bin on the Beth Israel campus starting November 1st in the synagogue foyer. You can help by purchasing one or more items from our wish list and dropping it in one of the bins.
