  • Rabbi's Message

    When we approach the holiday commemorating our acceptance of the Torah, we recommit ourselves to that acceptance by increasing our efforts to engage in serious talmud torah.  Whether as part of a shiur, beginning to study with a chavrusa, or picking up a sefer on your own, this time of year is auspicious to embark on a new seder halimud, a new order of study.  As a community, we begin the process of focusing on limud haTorah with an all-night Tikkun Leil Shavuos a week from this Motzei Shabbos, May 26th, beginning at 11:30 pm.  There will be an open Beis Medrash plus an impressive array of shiurim in the Main Shul throughout the night. The topics of the shiurim are:

    Legal & Theological Implications of the 7th Commandment

     Hallel on the 5th of Iyar: Halachic Issues

     Whose Stick Is It Anyway?

    Diseases & Treatments of the Talmud: Part I

    Meaningless Movements or Important Implications?

    Kosher Bugs?!?! - Locusts & Jewish Law

    Judaism and Racism: Incompatible 'Isms'

    G-d's 3 Steps To Greatness

    The Most Important Account: Cheshbon Hanefesh

    (Shiur times will be distributed next week)

    In addition to these great classes and individual learning, there will shiurim specifically for teens, girls and boys, and women.                            Hope to see you there!!!

    Have a great Shabbos, and a meaningful Chag Matan Torahseinu.
