Mitzvah Network

CLICK HERE FOR MITZVAH OF THE MONTH

Temple Or Rishon is proud to have individuals who are dedicated to the caring of our community. Our Mitzvah Network encompasses the many different areas of care and need that people face during their lifetime. 

The Temple Or Rishon Mitzvah Network is where we come to commit ourselves to mitzvah, and to share with others the love and joy that comes from bringing caring and compassion into our lives. 

 Caring for the world around us, caring for those who are closest to us, and caring more deeply for ourselves - this is what we do at Temple Or Rishon, this is who we are, this is why we exist!

Becoming more involved in Temple Or Rishon's Mitzvah Network, is a great way to engage in our community. For more information, please email us at volunteer@orrishon.org, or call the temple office!

For details on the different elements of the Mitzvah Network, please click on the links to the right.
