Upcoming Events
Rosh Hodesh Elul
Tuesday, August 14, 7:30 PM, at Temple Beth El.
Elul is the month of preparation for the High Holy Days. Because these days are filled with so much meaning and potency, they require a special measure of readiness. We are called upon to enter them thoughtfully and to consider what they mean. We look forward to sharing this special Rosh Hodesh with the women of our community. We welcome guests as well. You are welcome to bring a snack to share.
It is also Wilma Gold's birthday—let's celebrate her!
