Shabbat Morning Service - Saturday, August 5
 Torah Portion: Parashat Va'et-hannan / פרשת ואתחנןDeuteronomy 3:23 - 7:11 The Torah reading of Va'et'khanan continues the retrospective view of the 40 years in the desert, given by Moses and ending in a list of "commandments, statutes and ordinances." This is rich material-not only the ten commandments, but also the Shema, the credo statement of Judaism; we even find the passage for "the wise son" in the Haggadah. Lay-led Shabbat Morning Services are followed by pot-luck veggie/dairy lunch and time to schmooze. 10:00am - 12:30pm Parking InformationThe Ethical Society Building, 1906 S. Rittenhouse Sq., 2nd floor Collier Room |
Tisha B’Av Services
ONE BOOK, ONE CONGREGATION SUNDAY, AUGUST 27
 Welcome Rabbi Julie Greenberg back from her summer break! Enjoy a delicious brunch and a rabbi led discussion of "The World to Come" by Dara Horn. A million-dollar Chagall is stolen from a museum during a singles' cocktail hour. The unlikely thief, former child prodigy Benjamin Ziskind, is convinced that the painting once hung in his parents' living room. This work of art opens a door through which we discover his family's startling history - from an orphanage in Soviet Russia where Chagall taught to suburban New Jersey and the jungles of Vietnam. The cost to attend is $10.00 for members and $15.00 for guests. Make your reservation now by email (info@leyvhair.org) or phone (215-629-1995). Reservations must be received by Thursday, August 24, 2016. Brunch is included 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM |
