Tikvat Israel…
A Friendly, Participatory, and Egalitarian Conservative Synagogue in Rockville, MD
At Tikvat Israel we appreciate the great diversity of backgrounds that make up the Jewish community today.
Our congregation includes not only people steeped in Jewish experience and training, but also those just discovering the beauty and richness of Judaism. Some come from traditional religious backgrounds; others grew up in non-observant homes. Some are Jews by choice; others are part of interfaith families.
Together we are united in the common desire to belong to a congregation where community means friendship, where religious practice means spiritual inspiration, and where education for young and old means personal growth and discovery.
Tikvat Israel is a place where you and your family will become enriched through friendship, prayer, and mitzvot.
Join in a tasteful evening of light fare, music, and wine, featuring a full range of fine Kosher for Passover selections. Wine tasting will be guided by expert Steve Kerbel and wine will be available for order. Steve Kerbel has been studying the Kosher wine industry since the early 1980's, and has visited dozens of wineries in Israel, California, and upstate New York. He conducts wine tastings for prospective weddings and b'nai mitzvah families to help them choose wines for their events.
The event will be held on Saturday, March 6 at 7:30pm; the cost is $20/person in advance and $25 at the door.
