Thursday, April 30, 2020 4:00 PM Tehillim - Soul Soothing Psalms with Rabbi Gavi Ruit
During times of uncertainty and distress, Jews have always turned to the Sefer Tehillim - The Book of Psalms - for solace, guidance, and renewal. Rabbi Gavi Ruit will lead a Psalms discussion group on Thursdays at 4pm. We will be reading and discussing Psalms selected specifically for these difficult times.
Sunday, May 3, 2020 2:00 PM Sisterhood Discussion of Unorthodox
There is some interest in watching Unorthodox on Netflix and then getting together to discuss the first 2 episodes when we would have been gathering for the Joanne Forman Film Festival. If that goes well and there's interest, we can take another 2 weeks and watch the last 2 episodes and discuss the following week. We had attempted to use Netflix Party to watch together, but it is a fairly complicated process - you need to watch on a computer (laptop or desktop) not a device - and you need to download the Netflix Party app on Chrome. So, if you'd like to participate, watch at your own pace. Those who don't have Netflix could take advantage of a free 30 day trial which would give you plenty of time to watch the entire series - click here for link to the trial.
