Temple Ohav Shalom hosts many member groups that strive to bring members together both inside and outside of the Temple to socialize and perform social action. |
Shalom Tots
Shalom Tots is an initiative of Temple Ohav Shalom for families with children ages five and younger. The goal of Shalom Tots is to welcome, engage, and give young families in the community the opportunity to connect with each other while creating a foundation for the Jewish identity in our children. Shalom Tots offers a collection of programming, such as Friday night Tot Shabbat, Saturday morning Shabbat Sha-Brunch, and joint programming with PJ Library. We are continually growing and adapting to the needs of the families at TOS and in the community. For more information about Shalom Tots and to hear about our upcoming events, please email [email protected].
