The Jewish Federation of Huntsville and North Alabama invites the community to our 2026 Annual Meeting on Sunday, July 26, from 2–4 p.m. at Etz Chayim Synagogue. Along with important Federation business—including board elections, community updates, and reports—you’ll hear from local rabbis as they share brief reflections on Tisha B’Av before welcoming featured speaker Dr. Ariel Liberman, Assistant Professor of Law and Legal Studies at Auburn University.
Dr. Liberman’s engaging presentation will explore the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 CE, how it transformed Jewish life and practice, and the enduring lessons Tisha B’Av offers for civic life in today’s world. The afternoon will conclude with an open Q&A and discussion, followed by a community oneg. Whether you’re a longtime member or new to the Federation, this is a meaningful opportunity to connect, learn, and help shape our community’s future. Please RSVP here.
