A Taste of Daf Yomi with Rabbi Perkins
Monday, November 29, 8:00 am
Under certain circumstances, the Torah commands us to protest or rebuke someone who may be behaving improperly – however, that may be defined. What are the contours of that obligation? When is it a good idea to offer rebuke – and when isn't it? No experience studying Talmud and no Hebrew background is required. Please click here to join us on Zoom after Minyan to find out.

Wednesday, December 1, 7:45 pm
Please join the Sisterhood Book Group when it convenes on zoom to discuss "The Book of Longings" by Sue Monk Kidd, an acclaimed author who is Christian, feminist and spiritual. In this imaginative novel, the author considers the possibility that Jesus had a wife and tells his story from her perspective. It gives insight into Jewish life during the late second temple period and the origins of Christianity as a sect of Judaism. For zoom info or questions, please email Michele.
