Mitzvah Day 2023
The Torah has commanded us to observe 613 commandments. If that number seems daunting, consider joining the Temple B’nai Abraham family on Sunday, November 19, from 8:30 AM to 1:00 PM for the 2023 Temple B’nai Abraham Mitzvah Day, and knock a few off the list!
Mitzvah Day is our Temple-wide community day of faith-based social action when we undertake a range of volunteer projects to help those in need. All ages are invited to give their time, energy, and care as together we enact our commitment to Tikkun Olam, repairing our broken world. We are requiring participants to sign up for time slots to complete the activity. Sign up is first-come, first-served and start times vary by project.
