Congregation P'nai Tikvah
9700 Hillpointe Rd. | Shabbat Services Via Zoom are 1st & 3rd Fridays of each month @7:30pm“Whatever the faiths you have known or the flags of your heritage, you are welcome here. Whatever the circumstances of your life and whomever you love, you are welcome here.
Whether you ran in here today on little feet, or ambled, or strolled, or rolled in, you are welcome here.
Whether you lean to the right or to the left, or like it somewhere in the middle; whether you are a believer or a questioner, or a questioning believer, you are welcome to this makom shalom, this place of peace, joy, and hope, Congregation P’nai Tikvah…”
(Based on a greeting used by Rev. Kevin Tarsa, shared by Rabbi Chava Bahle, and further refined by Rabbi Yocheved Mintz)

CPT Annual Meeting
One Step at a Time!
Dear P’nai Tikvah community,
It has been a wild ride the past years, but Congregation P’nai Tikvah has held on with your encouragement and support! I hope you’re as excited as we are to come together as a community at our virtual Annual Meeting on Sunday, June 26th at 11:00 AM (PST). Our gathering will be an opportunity to see old friends and new, and hear all the things we have accomplished this past year. We are asking for your help in shaping the new year when we will gather in person as well as continue to build wider virtual participation, as an even more creative community.
You can help to raise awareness of the important work we do by inviting your friends and colleagues. As we will gather virtually, we can host an unlimited number of people at this free event. Don’t let geography or time zone stop you!
Best,
Judi Stotland

It’s Complicated
Like many of us, I have a life-long relationship with Israel. I made aliyah at 22, lived and loved there for years, have family and friends there, and I know that I am safer in the world because Israel is there as my home base.
