Mazel tov to Jenna Barricklo @in_jennaral! 🎉🎶

We are so proud to share that Jenna has been accepted to the Debbie Friedman Sacred School of Music at Hebrew Union College and will be ordained with the Class of 2031! Many in our community know and love Jenna as the former K–3 music teacher at the KKBE Religious School, where she inspired our youngest learners through song and spirit.

Jenna will begin her journey on the Jerusalem campus for her first year, followed by four years at the New York campus. 

We wish Jenna every blessing as she takes this exciting next step. Mazel tov—we can’t wait to see all that you’ll do! 💙✨

🌦️🐶 Meet Ruthie, KKBE’s very own Weather Dog!

Alongside her human, Pat Votava—a beloved KKBE congregant—Ruthie has been keeping Sullivan’s Island informed (and entertained!) for years through Pat’s Weather Dog series, which began during hurricane season.

Fun fact: that iconic scarf? A gift from one of Pat’s friends, handmade all the way in England just for Ruthie. 🇬🇧✨

From storm updates to seaside forecasts, Ruthie is a local legend—and we’re lucky she’s part of our KKBE family. 💙

Thank you for your understanding. We appreciate your patience as we navigate these change, and we look forward to gathering together soon, under safer circumstances, and with just as much of a celebration for our incredible Rabbi!
