Jewish Holidays at Aviva Pembroke

by | Nov 5, 2026 | It's a Wrap, Other News

The Jewish community came together to help residents of Aviva Pembroke enjoy the Jewish New Year and Sukkot.

Jewish Family Service delivered 38 Rosh Hashanah bags filled with apples, honey, a fresh calendar, and a challah donated by Ohef Sholom Temple. Rabbi Ari Oliszewski from Temple Emanuel stopped by to blow the shofar, Cantor Elihu Flax conducted a meaningful program, and fifth graders from Strelitz International Academy helped decorate Aviva’s rooftop deck sukkah, participated in art projects, and shook the lulav and etrog with residents.
