Do you know someone who wants to age in their own home? Come learn about River West Village. Part of the Village Movement, which started in Boston 15 years ago, we help people age at home by bringing services to them. A nonprofit membership organization, not a real estate development or retirement community, we depend on grants, donations and membership dues for finances and on recruiting intergenerational volunteers for services like helping seniors with shopping and transportation. Perhaps most importantly, we build community through activities such as potlucks, educational outings and coffee clubs. More than 200 villages nationwide are open with another 150 in development. River West Village launches October 1.
Refreshments served
The MJCC is partnering with River West Village, a nonprofit forming in SW Portland that helps the elderly and handicapped stay safely and comfortably in their own homes by providing services and community. Not a PLACE, but a PLAN, River West is scheduled to open October 2017. Come hear about their mission and operation.
Free and open to the community.
All members of Neveh Shalom are welcome to attend.
Exhibition Theme:
This Is Where I Live is a collective photographic portrait of Israel and the West Bank as seen by the people who call this region home. From 2010–2013, photographer Wendy Ewald worked with a total of 14 different communities, providing point-and-shoot digital cameras and mentoring participants as they visually documented their lives. The final exhibition includes 400 images, all of which are testaments to the vitality and variety of the region’s cultural landscape as well as the multifaceted nature of Jewish identity.
Open Tuesday–Sunday, Noon-5 pm.
In the Pearl District, on 8th between Couch & Davis.

Please join Congregation Shaarie Torah for a special Shabbat morning service. At this service, we will include new melodies, explore the service with some reflections on the prayers themselves, and chant according to the Triennial cycle of Torah readings. It will be a mix of the beautiful and familiar traditional Shabbat morning service and new ideas and energy. This service meets in the Chapel downstairs on the third Saturday of the month.
