Building on the successes of last year, we’re planning to have learning and dinner events centered on the חגים (holidays).
Rabbi Perton will continue his series of lectures for women. The Daf Yomi takes place every weekday morning and in the afternoon on Shabbat, as does Rabbi Wolf’s halacha class on Saturday afternoon. There is a lecture series for women on Shabbat afternoon, the location and times being announced in the weekly bulletin. Our Monday and Wednesday classes are going strong. The Monday שיור(class) with Rabbi Binder has recently finished the Talmud Tractate Sotah and has started on Shabbat.
The Wednesday שיור with Rabbi Gimple continues to work through the parts of the Aurech HaShulchan dealing with the laws of Jewish Jurisprudence.
The Shavuot program and our Scholar in Residence, Rabbi Natan Slifkin were well attended, and Rabbi Slifkin proved to be an interesting speaker, dealing with a wide range of contemporary issues, some of which were controversial. We’re hoping to find someone as good for next year.
This year’s High Holiday Chazzan is Reverend Yechezkel Klang who was here last year and who has a magnificent voice; he will be an inspiration for our davening.
Stay tuned for more religious programming announcements.
Finally, let us take this opportunity to wish you a happy, healthy, and successful New Year, a שנה טובה ומתוקה , and a כתיבה וחתימה טובה
