Celebrate the uplifting and joyous holiday of Simhat Torah, a day for adults and children alike. Join us where the Torah is the focal point and dancing is encouraged for all!
On Erev Simhat Torah, be ready for a musical service and dancing for the entire family where we come together for the annual cycle of reading of the Torah.
Join our congregation as we celebrate the contributions of our members, Stephanie Levey and Steve Wasserman on Wednesday, October 15 at 9:45 am.
Every year, our congregation celebrates the contributions of cherished members for their dedication and commitment to the community.
Stephanie Levey has been a dedicated PAS volunteer for nearly two decades, during which time she has served on the Congregational School, Music, Tikkun Olam, and Social Work committees, co-chaired the Bnei Mitzvah track of the synagogue’s record-setting 2018 trip to Israel, and raised four children who have been teen leaders in the community. These are only some of the achievements that made her an obvious choice as a 2025 Simhat Torah honoree.
Steve loves the community and has made it a central part of his life since his daughter Samantha and son Josh attended the Penn Family Early Childhood Center. It’s his long and happy journey of milestones, simchas and dedicated volunteer work that has resulted in his being named a 2025 Simhat Torah honoree.
