Seniors

United Hebrew offers many opportunities for our senior community to engage. In addition to the adult education and service offerings, we host monthly senior programs in partnership with Congregation Shaare Emeth, Congregation Temple Israel and Temple Emanuel. Each of these programs begins at 12 noon with a delicious lunch followed by a speaker or entertainer.

In addition, 2-4 times per year we offer Jewish Seniors on the Move, a program where active St. Louis Jewish seniors can enjoy day trips, tours, food and friends while exploring St. Louis! This program is presented in partnership with Congregation Shaare Emeth, Congregation Temple Israel and Temple Emanuel as well.

We also offer a Chair Exercise Class with Joyce Hochberg on Mondays at 1:30 p.m. Join us for an exciting and fun 50-minute movement class. It will be an EASY and safe chair exercise routine to upbeat music. No experience is necessary, just wear comfortable, easy moving clothes and closed-toe shoes. Check out our calendar to see if class will be offered in-person, or just on Zoom.

The monthly joint senior programs and Seniors on the Move are made possible through a grant from the Women’s Auxiliary Foundation for Jewish Aged, a supporting foundation of Jewish Federation of St. Louis.

Transportation

Thanks to the generosity of the Eugene and Betty Wolff Transportation Fund, Senior Members of United Hebrew Congregation can receive door to door Taxi service for Temple activities.

All we request is that you call the Temple office at (314) 469-0700, at least one day in advance to make your reservations.
