Recap of TBC's Annual Congregational Meeting
TBC President June Mara has drafted a report of TBC's June 13 Annual Meeting, which is posted for viewing here. (And yes, there is a missing link there to our committee reports, and we've sent our trained link-hunters out to find it. Check back soon!)
Among the meeting's many interesting reports, there is now new Temple leadership for many positions; a Musical Enhancement Task has been formed; Ellie Gluck will be moving to a full-time position adding Communications to her portfolio; and we have re-enrolled TBC in the ADL's Kulanu antisemitism initiative.

On Friday, June14, TBC will celebrate its annual Pride Shabbat! Join us for special readings and songs as well as talks and participation by congregants. Please invite family and friends! All are welcome! A special Pride oneg will follow with special "pride challah" and other treats.
AND Wilton Pride yard signs will be available for free for the first 10 people who ask (tomorrow on site!) Be brave, become an ally! | |

It is traditional to light a memorial candle at home on the eve of the yahrzeit. You may also find it meaningful while kindling the yahrzeit candle to offer prayers of remembrance or reflect on your loved one’s life. Many also choose this time to make monetary donations in memory of loved ones.
Yahrzeit Memorial Plaques
When remembering loved ones who have passed away, we invite you to commemorate their lives and blessings with a memorial plaque for the TBC wall of remembrance. Ordering information is available here.
