We did it! Have you? If you see anyone wearing one of these buttons you will know they've scribed their letter in our community Torah. Don't get left out!

For the first time in its 108-year history, Temple De Hirsch Sinai will scribe its own Torah. When complete, this Torah will become an enduring part of our community - a legacy that will last for now, forever and for everyone.

Project 613 is a year-long journey the Temple De Hirsch Sinai community will take to write our own Torah scroll. A defining event in the life of our congregation, Project 613 presents a powerful opportunity for us to personally and spiritually connect to Torah and each other, expand our knowledge of its contents and fulfill the mitzvah described in Deuteronomy.
