WE INVITE YOU TO BE PART OF THIS HISTORIC CELEBRATION!

"As we embark on our congregation's 200th anniversary, we encourage our fellow congregants and friends of Rockdale to join us in contributing to the Rockdale Temple Bicentennial Fund to support our Senior Rabbi now and for many future generations!"
- Dr. David Schwartz & Josh Shapiro, campaign co-chairs 

2022 will be a transformative year as we launch our 200 Years of Living Jewish Values rabbinical endowment campaign/bicentennial fund. Funds raised from our congregational families and those who have benefited from strong rabbinical leadership over the years will be placed in our new Rockdale Temple Bicentennial Fund, a restricted fund created by the Board of Directors to endow the Senior Rabbi position. 

As we look to the next 200 years of Jewish life at Rockdale Temple, we know we need:

1) continuity in leadership so we can connect, sustain, and transform our holy congregation

2) innovation in worship 

3) experimentation in programming

4) new heights in education, and

5) empowerment and engagement of the next generation so they can be full participants at Rockdale Temple.
