February 9, Tuesday
7:00-
9:00pm - Intergenerational Education - The Transformative Synthesists:
Great Jewish Thinkers That Made Judaism Anew
This evening's topic:
Hermann Cohen—Judaism + Kant We will supply cookies and coffee; you're welcome to bring a brown bag dinner. A donation of $5 for members and $10 for non-members, or $18/$36 for the entire series, is suggested.
February 12, Friday 7:30pm - Special Family-Friendly Sabbath Service We will welcome Shabbat together by singing, lighting candles, blessing our children and telling stories. We will make the time "magic" by separating ourselves physically and spiritually from the rest of the week by participating in activities, song, study and prayer that celebrate the creation of the universe and our relationship with God.
This special Shabbat celebration will be led by Orli Spanier, our education director, and Dr. Jeff Cohen, our temple president. It is for everyone -- if you have a family or are part of one!
The TUJ Volunteer Choir is up and running, with lots of fun music planned for our Shabbats and special services. We usually rehearse at 6:30 PM before each service. Call: 888-590-2791.
