What an amazing Hanukkah party and Iron Chef competition! Thank you to the largest number of competitors ever (17!) Everyone made incredible creations inspired by the secret ingredient: RAINBOW.Click here to see lots of pictures.
Everyone is invited to connect with our next generation of Jewish leaders and join the Mitzvah teens and their families for a lively Shabbat morning service and Torah reading.
Together we will be sharing feedback and reflections on recent JCOGS programs, as well as envisioning future learning opportunities for our community. All those interested in adult education at JCOGS are welcome, regardless of previous attendance. Please register to receive a Zoom link.

Stowe Police Say Preparedness Saves Time and Lives!
Following a building walk-thru and security assessment earlier in the week, Officers Whitcomb, O’Steen and Daly spoke with JCOGS members at a security program Sunday morning. While JCOGS leadership continues work on securing our building and hires security presence for shabbat and gatherings, we are our biggest security strength. What can we all do?
