Sukkah Party
HELP US ASSEMBLE THE SUKKAH!
For the first time since 2019, The Mens Club will be sponsoring a
Sukkah Assembling and Decorating Event
on Friday, October 7, at 10:00AM.
The Sukkah will, once more, be erected in the Andrew Levin Garden.
Join Rabbi Gadi, Tom Byrne, and all interested members of our Shul as we participate in the return of this ancient tradition, while sharing our skills
(and inevitable weaknesses!) while performing this mitzvah.
Please email Tom Byrne ( drtombyrne@me.com ) if you are available to help.
Of course, refreshments will be available! Hope to see many of you there.

The Book Circle To Explore A Complex Mother-Daughter Relationship
For its next meeting, the Book Circle has chosen The Beauty Queen of Jerusalem by Sarit Yishai-Levi. The group will gather on Thursday, August 25, at 4 p.m., in the community room of the synagogue.
This novel, a finalist in the 2016 National Jewish Book Awards, is set against the Golden Age of Hollywood, the dark days of WWII, and the swinging ‘70s. The story follows generations of women as they travel through the dramatic changes in the times of their lives. Reviewers have called the book “a powerful story of love and forgiveness.”
The Book Circle explores stories by Jewish writers and those focused on Jewish themes. For more information, email ctigreenport@gmail.com with a message for Susan Rosenstreich, coordinator of the group.
