Junior Youth Group     Grades 6 through 8

Senior Youth Group     Grades 9 through 12

Temple Ahavat Shalom takes great pride in its Youth Programming.  Our youth groups provide social events, informal Jewish education, Tzedakah/Caring Community projects, as well as worship services and “shul in” opportunities for pre-teens and teens in grades 6-12.

Our youth programs strive to instill Jewish identity, foster commitment to the ideals and values of Reform Judaism, increase synagogue participation among our youth, while maintaining a joyful, spirited connection to Judaism. This ideal is pursued in a framework, which emphasizes personal growth and leadership skills, all within a wholesome, social, Jewish environment.

Youth group activities often include participation with members of other youth groups throughout the state of Florida.  Relationships are reinforced through participation in events that take place throughout Southeastern United States including our Reform movement's special treasure, Camp Coleman, in Cleveland Georgia.

Members of our Youth Group also participate in National tours to places of Jewish interest in the United States and to Israel with NFTY, The National Federation of Temple Youth.

Youth Choir

Temple Ahavat Shalom’s Youth Choir offers an extracurricular music experience for its students from Kindergarten to seventh grade.  The children learn contemporary and traditional Jewish music and perform several times during the school year for holidays and Shabbat.  The choir has performed at Menorah Manor, Marriot Assisted Living and Lansbrook Park as well as here in our sanctuary for Friday night services and Sunday School T’fillah.  All of our religious school students are welcome and encouraged to participate.
