Heschel Challah Bake

The Parents' Association extends sincere gratitude toward our challah teachers, Katja Goldman and Rachel Ringler, and to the 125 families who participated in last night's Heschel Challah Bake!

The virtual class reviewed the entire challah baking process from proofing yeast, to kneading, to rising, to shaping, to glazing, to baking!

We wish you a sweet and tasty Shabbat!

Zoom Career

Dear Heschel families,

We would like to wish you a peaceful and restorative Shabbat and also announce a new initiative from the Parents' Association.

Beginning next week (3/30), we will be organizing Shabbat Across Heschel, giving us each the opportunity to make contact by phone (or by email if phone is not feasable) and wish a Shabbat Shalom to a fellow Heschel family.

By Thursday of each week, you will receive an email with the name and contact of a Heschel family to whom you can reach out before Shabbat. Our hope is that this will be a sweet and meaningful way to mark the end of the week and to become acquainted with new families!

If, for any reason, you do not wish to participate in Shabbat Across Heschel, you can opt out by clicking here.

Warmest regards,

Stephanie Sebag and Sara Harris
