Summer Minyan
Come for the davening, stay for the schmoozing and enjoy an ice cream treat! Summer Minyan is held on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 7:00 pm and includes both Mincha and Ma’ariv services. Helping to make a minyan is an easy and rewarding way to contribute to our community.
Temple Aliyah’s Shir and Shiur Circle
Join Rabbi Poirier and Cantor Sohn for soulful singing (Shir) and text study (Shiur) while highlighting themes of the Jewish calendar. All are welcome, whether you think you can sing or not! If you are interested and anticipate you could attend most events, please contact Cantor Sohn.
The two songs on the left are a taste of what we’ll sing, study and discuss in the first couple of meetings.
We plan to gather before evening minyan on or near Rosh Chodesh on the following dates:
A Re-Imagined Torah on Two Feet, with Rabbi Leslie Gordon
Saturdays: Oct 26; March 9; April 26; May 17
9-10 am, T.A. Library
Join us as we embark on the deepest of dives into Torah study. No Hebrew knowledge is necessary, though we will pay attention to significant wording in the original. Come for one session, an occasional session, or join us as we make our way through all of Torah.
A Taste of Daf Yomi: Study of a Page of Talmud with Rabbi Perkins
Mondays: 8:00-9:00 am via zoom (see the TA Comingup for zoom info)
If you haven’t yet tried Rabbi Perkins’ Taste of Daf Yomi class, this is your last chance this season. Rabbi Perkins will cover a passage from the end of tractate Sanhedrin that addresses profound philosophical questions: whether one should ever be deemed guilty of what one might do in the future; when human life begins; and what prohibitions are so serious that they must never be violated—even at the risk of our lives. Please join us before we take our summer hiatus. No previous experience studying Talmud is necessary, and all texts will be made available in English. All are welcome!
