The first step in opening the new home of Greenwich Reform Synagogue will be celebrated on Sunday, May 21, starting at 10 a.m.

Led by Rabbi Sklarz, the congregation will install the entrance “mezuzah” together. Adults and children will then install “mezuzot” on doors throughout the building. Afterwards, everyone will gather in the sanctuary for a “Shavuot” celebration and teacher appreciation, along with lots of singing and dancing. The holiday of Shavuot marks the giving of the Torah (the Jewish Bible) at Mt. Sinai. Dairy foods are traditionally eaten on this holiday, delicious ice cream will cap the celebration.

All are welcome, but RSVPs are appreciated by contacting the GRS office at 203-629-0018, ext. 1001 or email StephanieGlaser@GRS.org
