Snow Storm

It's the first of February and a big snow storm is predicted for tomorrow.  We may need to cancel school and all classes.  If this is the case, stay tuned.

This Friday night begins the Hebrew month of Adar, in this case, Adar 1, since to compensate for a lunar year of 354 days the calendar adds a leap month every 7 years in a 19-year cycle.  This year we celebrate Purim March 19 and Passover waaay late in April -- the 18th.  

This Shabbat we are very fortunate to have an adult Bnai Mitzvah.  Two of our wonderful members, Linda Roberts Greenblatt and David Weissberger, have been working very hard over the past few years -- taking classes in history, Judaism, literature, Torah, Hebrew and Jewish thought.  I hope you will all turn out and support these wonderful members of our Temple family.

And speaking of our Temple Family, please come to Folk Service 5:30 this Thursday when we celebrate New Member Shabbat.

See y'all there!
