Or Ami Village—it’s not a place. It’s a vibrant community created and led by Or Ami partners 55+ years and beyond that nourishes the mind, heart, and spirit.
Thanks, Gil Spiegel! Or Ami Village has become an integral part of Congregation Or Ami, sharing the same inclusive values of warmth, community and friendship. Since our inception in 2019, we have presented a variety of over 60 programs to our 55+ community. We continue to add more and more events and opportunities to gather.
SUMMER HAS SPRUNG AND SO HAVE WE! Our Villagers mingled on a Sunday afternoon in the shade of a beautiful park. The first of many upcoming outdoor activities!
