MESSAGE FROM RABBI BRIAN

Welcome to Sons of Abraham!  No matter what brings you to La Crosse, we are your Jewish home.  As your rabbi, I want our programs and services to have meaning for you and your family personally, and to help you achieve the level of spirituality you desire.  See our schedule of events below, and come worship with us!

PROGRAMS

Congregation Sons of Abraham offers a full range of  activities for the Jewish community, in addition to worship services. Our religious school serves students from preschoolers to teenagers, our adult education offers several engaging courses, and our social action committee engages our members in activities that benefit the surrounding community. 

CELEBRATIONS!

Our Celebrations Committee helps to plan and host holiday celebrations, Kiddush lunches, guest speakers, musical programs and other community events, bringing our members together for fun and fellowship.
