Our MT Nesters is a group comprised of seniors, the majority of which are members of the synagogue. The group meets once a month and continues to celebrate many years of coordinating activities for seniors in our community. Activities are planned monthly and vary from an evening with the Clergy, to taking in a play, visiting a museum, or a night at Ravinia.
The Social Action committee performs charitable acts throughout the Jewish community. From packing holiday food boxes for the needy, or sponsoring families during Hanukah, to playing Bingo at the senior center once a month.
