Complete Our Torah — Letter by Letter, Heart by Heart
On October 25th, our Temple Etz Chaim family will come together for a
once-in-a-lifetime moment: completing the final paragraph of a brand-new Sefer Torah, lovingly gifted to our congregation by the Ghozland Family in honor of their son’s Bar Mitzvah.
This is your opportunity to place your family’s name — and your spirit — into our holiest object. By dedicating a letter, you become a permanent part of this Torah and the generations who will read from it decades to come.
Every contribution, at every level, helps bring this sacred project to life. We invite you to give at the level most meaningful to your family — because there is no greater investment than in words that bind us together, l’dor v’dor.
