Co-Chairs: Elise Richman Ezekiel, Marcy Lidman

The Membership Committee plays a critical role as the “gateway” into Temple Emunah for all prospective and new members, who represent the present and the future of Temple Emunah. The Committee’s mission is to attract and encourage unaffiliated individuals to join the Congregation, and once they join, to welcome those members through programs for orientation and integration into our community. In addition, the Membership Committee is involved in the ongoing retention of all Temple members.

More specifically, the Membership Committee sponsors two to three open houses each year to provide an opportunity for prospective members to come and learn more about the Temple, and for current members to welcome them. In addition, the Membership Committee delivers welcome gifts to new members and coordinates a new member “buddy” program to help new members become integrated into the Temple community.

The Membership Committee is proud of its achievements in helping to maintain and grow the base of Temple Emunah member families.
