Part 2 - May 7: Leadership, Bylaws, Budget, and Celebration
We will vote on our new Board members and recommendations of the Jewish Adjacent* Task Force. We will also review next year’s budget and hear more about Temple Isaiah’s 65th Anniversary Celebration.
Proposed Bylaw Amendments
Under our Temple’s principle of inclusivity and as part of our 2024-25 goals, we formed a task force to explore the role – in membership, leadership, and ritual – of members of our community who are not Jewish. At the May 7 meeting, members will vote on the proposed bylaw amendments. The Jewish Adjacent* Task Force will be hosting an online Information Session on April 15.
