TSMRJ Book Discussion
2026-06-10 19:00 - 21:00 | DC
Join the Temple Sinai Brotherhood Book Club at the temple for a discussion of The Genius of Israel: The Surprising Resilience of a Divided Nation in a Turbulent World by Dan Senor and Saul Singer. It’s about how “a small nation of 9 million people, forced to fight for its existence and security since its founding and (d)riven by ethnic, religious, and economic divides, (proves) resistant to so many of the societal ills plaguing other wealthy democracies.”
This book was written before October 7, 2023, but released shortly afterward, so its perspective is not shaped by events since then, and it may be dated. Either way, the book should serve as a catalyst for a lively (yet amiable) discussion. Both the Montgomery County Libraries and the DC Libraries have copies available. The Brotherhood welcomes all who are interested in joining the discussion. Contact Howard Oppenheim with questions or to let him know you plan to attend. (Beer, wine, coffee, and snacks are provided.)

Bodies on the Line: Resisting Settler Violence in the West Bank
2026-06-10 19:00 - 21:00 | DC
Israeli peace activists are on the front lines of resisting the alarming increase in settler violence on the West Bank that is driving out Palestinian villagers from their historic homes. With donations from Temple Sinai members, CIESJ has supported the New Israel Fund’s efforts to coordinate the protective presence that these peace activists provide. Come and hear first-hand accounts of these activists. A reception will follow.

YAWS Meeting
2026-06-18 19:30 - 21:30 | Temple Sinai – 3100 Military Road NW, Washington, DC, United States
We are a group of parents of young adults and teens who are struggling with life. Examples of such difficulties might be: isolation, social difficulties, school avoidance, school failure or other learning differences, vocational struggles, inhibitions around launching and independence or strained relations with friends and family. Many struggle with mental illness, learning disabilities, Asperger’s, substance abuse or autism. Some are undiagnosed, just not living up to society’s expectations.

We meet once a month and support and encourage one another as we look at strategies for helping our young adults. We understand the journey, which has many twists and turns, often not what we expected when thinking about raising a child. We laugh, cry, share resources, and support one another. Occasionally, we have speakers join us and supplement our knowledge of resources available, including housing options, legal remedies, new medications or treatments, etc.

The group meets monthly and is open to anyone interested. All information shared is completely confidential. Should you have any questions, please call the Temple Sinai office at (202) 363-6394.

Topgolf, in Germantown, is a sports entertainment complex that features an inclusive, high-tech golf game (driving range).

We welcome all skill levels, including novices. While you are free to bring your own clubs, most folks use the clubs provided at no extra charge by Topgolf.
Let Bob Loesche know if you plan to be there. This event is open to all congregants, friends, and family members who would like to join in. Cost for the event is $20/person (payable via Zelle to Bob or in cash when you arrive at Topgolf).
