Shalom Beit Chaverim,

I was at 'Rabbi Camp' last week and was only able to call into the Pool Party!!! It was great hearing your familiar voices. Thanks to the Apple Family for hosting! Looking forward to our next Pool Party on August 19th! More details to come.

This week's Torah portion is Mas'ei. It is the last portion in the Book of Numbers. It is customary to stand for the last few verses of Torah with the congregation calling out, "May we go from Strength to Strength." Next Shabbat we will begin the Book of D'varim, Deuteronomy. I will be away fro the week in L.A. visiting my daughter. However,

if you need me, feel free to email. I hope to have good wifi reception in CA.

"Moses has recorded, stage by stage, the journeys of the children of Israel: from Egypt to Sinai, from Kadesh to Edom. Now, "in the plains of Moab by the Jordan near Jericho,: God describes the extent of Israel's inheritance. God provides for the division of Canaan, and for the establishment of Levitical cities and cities of refuge." Sim Shalom Siddur.

Grand Slam Sunday:

The Jewish Federation of Greater Washington is presenting a Jewish Community Day at Nationals Park on August 27th. Is there an interest in having a 'Beit Chaverim Team' at this game? Please let me know so we can order tickets and sit together as a group. More info at:

Another High Holiday melody. It is a favorite of mine that we only hear once a year!

This YouTube is a bit flamboyant but we will certainly be haimische!
