Happy BC Day!

From mountains to oceans, forests to city parks, BC is a place filled with beauty and adventure.

However you’re spending the day — exploring nature, relaxing with loved ones, or discovering a new corner of our province — may it bring joy, fresh air, and a sense of wonder.

FEW SPOTS LEFT!

Join us for a welcoming Shabbat dinner. We’ll share a relaxed meal, song, and conversation in a space where addiction and mental health challenges can be spoken about openly and without judgment.

Gatherings like these help us to form a community of recovery within our community by creating a space which honours both our Jewish identity and our experience with addiction. Whether you yourself have had this experience, know someone who does, or you're an ally who wants to support others in their recovery, you are warmly invited to join us for an evening of good food, meaningful conversation, and connection.

Dinner will be followed 8pm by Temple Sholom's Shabbat Evening Service, followed by dessert.
