Shalom Beit Chaverim!
Looking forward to seeing everyone this Friday, April 21st at 6pm (Saint Paul’s) for our Yiskor Service.
This week's Torah portion is Sh'mini:
Aaron and his sons emerge from the Mishkan on the eighth day of its consecration to make atonement for Israel. Aaron's two eldest sons, Nadav and Avihu, light 'alien fire' on the altar, contrary to God's precepts, and are struck down. Moses instructs Aaron not to mourn; Aaron continues with his duties. Thereafter God lists the Kosher and non-Kosher animals. "You shall be Holy," God asserts, "for I am Holy." (Sim Shalom Prayerbook)
This Shabbat coincides with the community observance of Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Memorial Day.
For more information about the community event on April 23rd, please look at the attached flier.
Note: This is right around the corner from my home. We can have coffee before we go.
