Lifelong Learning
Our Temple Israel clergy take great pride in bringing our adults stimulating and
relevant Torah study. You could ask for no better teachers than Rabbi Michael Wolk
and Cantor Shira Lissek for thought-provoking Torah discussions, spiritual reflection,
ancient history lessons, and more.
From September through May, be on the lookout for additional Lifelong Learning
classes on specific topics, and often with special guests.
The only supplies needed: Questions and an Open Mind. To inquire about our conversion class, please contact the
Clergy Office at 980-960-2379.
