Building Blocks - Come Grow with Us
OVS Building Blocks Religious School - 2023/2024
I am so excited about our third year of Religious School – OVS Building Blocks – Come Grow with Us!
Classes for children ages 3-9 will be held on the first and third Sundays of each month. Youth Shabbat will be held on the second and fourth Saturdays each month. Sessions will be held from August through May from 10:00 - Noon.
The curriculum will focus on Jewish values, holidays and traditions through structured learning, informal play and prayers to instill a love of Judaism. I’ll be directly responsible for the curriculum and supervision of the teachers.
OVS Building Blocks will bring us closer to reaching one of the goals set in our strategic plan, bringing more young families with children to our Keilah. The addition of more young families will help pave the way to a strong future for OVS, with active involvement from multiple generations of participants.
The first session of Building Blocks will be held on Sunday, August 20. The program is open to both members and non-members. Details, including all session dates and pricing, can be found at orveshalom.org/event/buildingblocks2022-2023. Please share with your friends and family.
I can’t wait to see OVS continue to thrive!

We are all ill-prepared for the most difficult and important time in our lives. When a loved one is dying or has died, it is far too late to learn about how to navigate the unwelcome waters one finds oneself in. This series will enable us to learn together about death, dying, grief, mourning, funerals, cemeteries and so much more. -
