CARLSBAD, California (Press Releaase)–During its celebration of Shavuot–marking the time when the Israelites received the Torah at Mount Sinai — Temple Etz Rimon will receive its own Torah. The sacred scroll, to be dedicated during the 7 p.m. services Friday night, May 14, was donated to the Reform congregation by Sunny and Dirk Frowein.
Special guest Rabbi Haim Asa, Rabbi Emeritus of Temple Beth Tikvah of Fullerton, will address the congregation. Rabbi Asa assisted with the purchase of this new scroll, and his son is the scribe who helped restore the scroll.
Temple Etz Rimon rents space from Pilgram Church, 2020 Chestnut Ave, Carlsbad.
