Message from Jane Medved–

Ladies – I know. I know. We haven't even finished sweeping up the crumbs from Purim. And now, a shiur about Pesach???? O.K. you are not imagining it. We are a tad early. But after all, Purim did happen on Pesach. (see perek "gimmel") So, let's get in some learning before the cleaning starts and all we have (I'm talking about me here) is matza on the brain. Announcing… The Baka Women's Rosh Chodesh Shiur For (Just Before) Nissan

WHEN: This coming shabbat – March 22 – Parashat "Shemini" 5:00 in the afternoon*
*You all know the drill by now. We start ON TIME. If the front door is closed, it means that the shiur has begun. Please go back to the gate and up the front merpeset and enter from the Library. There will be seats there.

WHERE: jane's house. Rehov Zerubavel #6. Baka
