Sunday Stuff

Thank you to the families who participated in our Tallit Dedication Shabbat Service, your commitment and support of our Religious School Experience is greatly appreciated.

FYI: I asked if anyone knew the name of the belt that held the Torah together and the correct answer is the hagorah. Some people use a wimple or a piece of cloth that originates from a baby blanket and is decorated with proverbs and blessings significant to the Torah reader. The piece of fabric is then used to touch the words of the Torah during an aliyah.

TABLE TALK
Please discuss you Hebrew and English names with your families this week, and ask why you were given the names you have.

Shout outs to Sarah, Emily, and Jessica. You know why!
