Green Team
Taking our environment religiously
An group has been formed to apply “tikkun olam”–repair the world– to the dire threat of global warming, to the greening of our temple expansion, to our Jewish education, to our Jewish holiday celebrations, and to our personal actions.
Environmental Principles of Temple Micah
Temple Micah recognizes that environmental issues are an essential part of tikkun olam. Therefore, Temple Micah will devote attention, resources, and energy to apply this principle to itself, its members, and the broader community in order to preserve, sustain, and repair our environment.
