What’s the key to happiness? Join us and find out!

Temple Emanu-El is thrilled to welcome the founder of Insomniac Bakery—beloved Jewish educator and baking inspiration Lori Press — for a delicious evening of baking, learning, and Tikkun Olam (repairing the world) at our Post-Passover Shlissel Challah Bake!

Together, we’ll braid key-shaped challot, a traditional symbol of hope, blessings, and new beginnings. While our dough rises, so will our spirits as we explore the meaning behind shlissel challah and take part in a hands-on Tikkun Olam project to support our community.

✨ Learn a new recipe
✨ Discover inspiring traditions
✨ Make a difference

Whether you’re a seasoned baker or just starting out, come unlock joy and tradition with us on Thursday, April 24 at 7:00 PM.

Follow the journey of Insomniac Bakery on Instagram @Insomniac_Bakery or visit InsomniacBakery.com to learn more.

Tikkun Olam / Social Action Program:

Help the clients of “Sistering” get settled in new homes.

This year, in response to the needs expressed by the staff of Sistering, we are collecting new cleaning supplies for women at Sistering, instead of toiletries. Their clientele has changed and now includes women setting up households after coming to Canada as refugees or fleeing domestic abuse.

After the Shlissel Challah Bake, we will pack buckets (supplied) of cleaning supplies for women at Sistering.

Please bring NEW cleaning and household supplies to the Temple, including:
• Dish soap
• Laundry soap
• All-purpose cleaning liquid
• “J-cloths”
• Dish towels
• Tea towels
• Hangers
• Oven mitts
And/or bring gift cards of $5 for Shoppers Drug Mart or a grocery store; Loonies, Toonies and quarters for laundry machines.

Registration required. Proceeds help fund programming and community support at Temple Emanu-El.
