Every Jewish community is built around a host of diverse opportunities for involvement. In the Lehigh Valley, you’ll find plenty of ways to get involved, whether through volunteerism, educational options, synagogue membership or more. “All of the elements you need to build a successful Jewish life in the Lehigh Valley can be found here, whatever your level of observance may be,” said Rabbi Jonathan Powers, director of kosher supervision for the Lehigh Valley Kashrut Commission.
