TORAH PORTION: SHABBAT TOLDOT
We continue to encourage and urge you to join us at one or more of our weekly services. These learning and social opportunities are providing the individual and our community an integral part of who we are. We noticed that individuals who are in attendance on a regular basis are more engaged and fulfilled.
We are looking forward to this Sabbath weekend religious services, including, Friday evening services: November 20th at 7:30 p.m., and Saturday, November 21st at 10:00 a.m.-The theme for this Sabbath weekend continues with the birth of Esau and Jacob and the blessings bestowed them by the aging Isaac. (On Saturday services, Jacob Elbaz will read the Torah, Dr. Terri Fine Stanzler will chant the Haftatah and attending members participate.
Due to Thanksgiving weekend, there will be no services on Friday or Saturday November 27 and 28.
Next Torah study session is on Tuesday, November 24th at 4 p.m. through zoom live – individuals that have joined in the past are eager to explore and share issues applicable to everyday life. So if you have not attended these sessions in the past, I encourage you to take advantage of the wide views expressed.
Correction: Our Zoom community will present a community-wide Havdalah & Chanukah event on Saturday, December 12th at 7:00 p.m. – This hour-long celebration will include the Havdalah ceremony, Kindling the Chanukiyah and presents music and stories. We would like to invite the greater community to join us. Please pass the word to your friends.
