Young Families

Young Jewish and interfaith families are welcome at Temple Emanu-El! We have a happy, friendly community and would love for you to be a part of it.

Temple Emanu-El proudly offers monthly Tot Shabbat for our youngest families, a safe and loving preschool, a vibrant and wonderful religious school, High Holy Day and monthly Shabbat services especially for families, an annual Shabbat dinner and outdoor service on Siesta Key Beach, a challah-baking workshop, “Pop-Up” family havdalahs at private homes, a Jewish parenting educational series, and other opportunities for families to learn, socialize, and engage in community service together. Our Rabbis are also parents themselves – with kids ranging from preschool to college-age – and are always ready to provide warm support.

We look forward to meeting you and your young family!
