ONEG B’YACHAD
Oneg b'Yachad is a delightful way to share community each Friday evening. Here is how it works:
please bring a plated appetizer or dessert (with serving utensil)
It should be simple finger food
Please bring enough to serve at least 4-6 people.
Communal participation also means sharing in a simple cleanup: wiping down tables, a quick sweep of the social hall, and taking out trash. Let’s work together. Please contact Judith Wine: wine.judith@jcogs.organd let her know you'd like to help.
