Men's Club
Men's Club
The EBJC's Men's Club is affiliated with the Federation of Jewish Men's Clubs, whose mission is to involve men in Jewish life.
We sponsor numerous events throughout the year which enrich the EBJC family including:
- participation in basketball and softball leagues that promote the physical health of our members
- religious programs like the Federation’s World Wide Wrap as well as other annual events like the Men’s Club Shabbat/Scholar-in-Residence Program, our Father/Child Shabbat, and our Yom Hashoah Candle Program where we distribute yellow candles to memorialize the שֹׁואָה
- programs of interest to the EBJC community, and our L'Shana Tova greetings program before Rosh Hashana, to promote the relationships between men in our congregation, and between members of the congregation in general
- fund raisers to help support EBJC, both in specific projects like chairs and flat panel displays, as well as in the annual budget; we also make contributions to feed the hungry and support survivors of the Shoah
- programs to support the larger community, such as blood drives and forums for political discussions.
The Mens’ Club is open to all male members of the EBJC aged 18 and over. For more information about the EBJC Men’s Club or to express your interest in becoming involved, please contact the synagogue office, or email howard_jacobs@ebjc.net
