Help keep our roadways clean.
 

 
Beit Midrash
 

Yes, Beit Midrash is back!  But what exactly is Beit Midrash, you ask.  Literally it means "House of Learning" or, more colloquially, study hall.  Our Beit Midrash is a delightful smorgasbord of delicious learning opportunities.  See this flyer for all the general details.  This flyer describes this month's offering.

It's time to feast on education.
 

 
Trip to Israel
 

Rabbi Harris will lead a trip to the Land of Israel. Watch this space for instructions on how to sign up!

The adventure of a lifetime.
 

 
Shabbat Out and About
 

Sometimes we venture away from our synagogue to celebrate Shabbat out in the community.  Besides being new and interesting, this gives the opportunity to participate to those who might otherwise not be able to attend.  We hope you can join us for Shabbat Out and About. Stay tuned for details about the next event.

The same wonderful Shabbat celebration, but at a different location.
