Ohr Shalom Dedicates Building at Third & Laurel

by Emily Jennewein, President

Rabbis Michael and Aliza Berk, my husband, Chris Jennewein and I attended Ohr Shalom Synagogue's dedication of its beautiful building, along with a number of Beth Israel congregants and Ohr Shalom congregants and guests on Sunday June 5.


Ohr Shalom is a Conservative synagogue that occupies our former synagogue home on 3rd and Laurel in downtown San Diego. We very much enjoyed attending the celebration of the completion of the major renovation of our former synagogue home.


San Diego City Councilmember Todd Gloria thanked the congregation for preserving the beautiful jewel for the benefit of the whole city of San Diego.
Among those attending were Beth Israel's historian Stan Schwartz, Laurel Schwartz, Jerry Sampson, Bob Metz, Nadine Finkel, Eileen Wingard, Al Kohn and many others.
