Dear Friends,

The Jewish Collaborative of Orange County is using this holiday weekend as a time to rest and refresh.  We will miss seeing you all at our weekly Friday Night by Candlelight and Havdalah Together programs, but look forward to seeing you next week with special guests Noah Novick (Friday) and Seth Siegel on piano (Havdallah).  When we say that "OC's Got Talent", we mean it!

Let us remember that the observance of Shabbat represents the deepest essence of liberty and Freedom for all.  

Happy 4th of July and Shabbat Shalom,

The Collaborative Team
