June 2026
Dear Temple Micah Members and Friends,
Shalom,
After fifty-seven years, Temple Micah is beginning a new and exciting chapter in the life of our synagogue, and we invite you to renew your membership—or, if you are not yet a member, to join our family. We need all of you to be part of something exciting in the Jewish community in Mercer County and Central New Jersey.
Our synagogue is more than a place of worship. It is a community where we celebrate Jewish life, support one another through times of joy and challenge, educate our children, strengthen our connection to our traditions and values, and engage the world around us with shared experiences. Your membership helps us continue to thrive for generations to come.
In early June we announced that we have a new spiritual leader. Rabbi Dr. Brielle Rassler. Rabbi Rassler brings a deep commitment to Jewish learning, community engagement, and pastoral care. She has an energy level that is infectious and we hope that you get a chance to meet her at one of our services or the High Holy Days. We look forward to the inspiration, wisdom, and leadership she will bring to our congregation.
Whether you have been a member for many years or are considering joining for the first time, we encourage you to be part of this exciting new beginning. Together, we can continue to build a warm, vibrant, and welcoming Jewish community.
Thank you for your continued support and commitment. We look forward to sharing this new chapter with you and your family. Enjoy your summer!!
B’Shalom,
Andrew Schragger
