OPEN THE DOOR TO SUMMER

Summer is here and with it comes not just the sun and the beach, but you can also take a class you always wanted, learn Hebrew, attend a concert, or visit a special exhibit at a museum with other PAS congregants. It’s also a great time to be helping others with one of our Tikkun Olam initiatives. We look forward to seeing you.
