We want YOU to join us on April 28 to stand for justice. At the Nehemiah Assembly, churches, synagogues, and mosques come together to build on the year’s work on solutions for affordable housing, homelessness, mental health, and elder care. The more people in the room, the more power our voice has. Can you help Beth Shalom turn out 50+ people? No prior experience necessary, just a desire to show up side by side with people of faith across Johnson County. RSVP to Rabbi Kaplan, Carla Oppenheimer, or Terri Miro.

Kol HaKavod to our middle and high schoolers for joining yesterday’s cemetery clean up. Our students — and the congregants who were there to meet them at the cemetery — are real mensches! Dave Herbet and Civia White planned a great morning. Thank you to all of the parents, Rabbi Kaplan, Morah Tami, and Alex Worth who staffed the field trip and to David Sosland for heading the cemetery committee.
