Bat Mitzvah of Ruby Stein-Citrin Saturdya, July 24, 10:00 am Online
Please join us via Zoom as Ruby Clara Stein-Citrin, daughter of Laura Citrin and Eric Stein, is called as a Bat Mitzvah. Ruby recently graduated from the Citizen Science Institute at Thurgood Marshall Middle School and is headed to Olympia High School next year. In her spare time she enjoys reading murder mysteries, going to the beach, listening to music, hanging out with friends, playing violin, drawing, writing letters, cats, and searching all of Olympia for the best fried chicken sandwich. Last year, as a mitzvah, she volunteered her time writing 100 postcards to get-out-the-vote for both the Presidential election and the US Senate runoff election in Georgia.

Temple Cleaning Sunday, July 25, 10:00 am - 12:00 pm In-Person Indoors Looking for some equipment loans for this project! If you have a carpet cleaner, upholstery cleaner, or power washer, please bring them as able.
All vaccinated individuals are invited to swing by for an hour or two on Sunday morning to help with the odd jobs that have stacked up during the pandemic. Get ready to make the woodwork shine, the windows squeaky clean, and treat those pesky spots on the carpet. We will even have an art show to go through items that have long been in storage tucked away in our closets.
We have spent so long sharing in virtual community, its time to show our physical space some communal love as we prepare to re-enter the doors on a regular basis once again. Morning refreshments provided!
