ABOUT US:
The Young Leadership Committee (YL) is a vibrant and dynamic group dedicated to serving the young adult population of our community. Through an ambitious calendar of social and religious events, YL fosters a sense of connection and engagement.

CORE PROGRAMMING:
The heart of YL's activities is the weekly Shabbat minyan. This spiritual service, held in a warm and welcoming atmosphere, includes a sermon delivered by our JC clergy. The YL minyan enhances the Shabbat experience with a monthly hot Kiddush and Friday night dinners, offering nourishment for both the body and soul. Additionally, Friday night Onegs are held in casual settings, providing opportunities to meet fellow members and connect with The Jewish Center Rabbis.

RECENT EVENTS:
YL's recent events have included a variety of social and religious gatherings:

• Monday Nights Beit Midrash with Rabbi Yehuda Goldberg
• Welcome to the West Side BBQ
• Annual Shemini Atzeret Lunch on the Roof
