בית כנסת עמק רפאים

בצער רב אנו מודיעים על פטירתו של אריה שיפמן ז"ל, אחיו של פנחס שיפמן. פרטי  ההלויה יפורסם בהמשך היום.

המקום ינחם אתכם בתוך שאר אבלי ציון וירושלים.

נודע לנו שהאמא של נעמי רוט אלברט (אישתו של מיכאל אלברט), גב' טרודי רוט, נפטרה בלוס אנג'לס שבקליפורניה. נעמי יושבת שבעה בקליפורניה.

Ladies –

The weather is changing (sort of), the cook books are coming off the shelves, and the lines at the supermarket are growing longer. It must be almost Tishrai. I looked at the calendar and decided that we can't go into Rosh Hashana with only recipes and shopping lists in our heads (o.k. – I'm talking about me here), so, announcing the just-in-time-you-probably-thought-we-weren't-going-to-have-one-shiur-for-rosh-hashana.

WHEN – This coming Shabbat – Sept. 15 – Parashat "Nitzavim"ת 5:00 in the afternoon

WHERE – Jane's house, Rehov Zerubavel #6, Baka

WHO – Pearl Borow

Do I need to introduce Pearl? The one lady I could turn to on erev chag to pull a shiur out of her pocket. Pearl teaches at the OU Israel Center, Emmunah Women, Tovai Ha'ir, and the Yael St. Shul's Women's Beit Midrash – which she helped to establish. Her specialty is Tanach, with an emphasis on "Nach" (niviim and ketuvim). You haven't really read these sources until Pearl shares them with you.

WHAT – "WHAT TO WEAR FOR ROSH HASHANA – LIFE LESSONS FROM THE HAFTORAH" – In English

WHY – see above.

Anyone interested in bringing nuts, chocolate of any kind, fruit, or other – zap me back.

See you on Shabbat –

Jane Medved
