On Sunday May 17, the congregation of Temple B’nai Jacob of Wellington came together to honor Rabbi David Abrams as he celebrated his 25th year in the Rabbinical Assembly.
A cocktail party attended by invited guests was held at the home of Dr. Mel Kohan, the inaugural president of the temple.
Abrams traveled to New York City with his son Joshua to receive an honorary doctorate degree from the Jewish Theological Seminary prior to returning home to Wellington and celebrating with his temple family.
The special event was further accentuated by the celebration of temple member Rabbi Bernie Eisenman’s recognition for 50 years of service in the Rabbinical Assembly.
Temple B’nai Jacob, serving the western communities, is a member of the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism and is located in the original Wellington Mall.
