Simons Jewish Community Archives has acquired documents, pho- tographs and other historical materi- al from the Birmingham Temple, the first congregation of Humanistic Judaism. The materials not only document the evolution of the Farmington Hills congregation, but also show another aspect of Jewish diversity within the broader religious context. The Jewish Community Archives will work with staff and volunteers to have materials ready for the Birmingham Temple's 40th anniver- sary in 2003. Rabbi Sherwin Wine founded the Humanistic Judaism movement in Birmingham. It is estimated that there are more than 50,000 members in Europe, Israel, North and South America and Australia.
