Wednesday, Mar 13, 12 pm New Voices: Modern Feminist Midrash In recent years, feminist writers have created a wealth of new stories and poems inspired by biblical and rabbinic texts, bringing fresh insights to our tradition. We will explore a variety of these midrashim in English, discussing how the writers are continuing the midrashic tradition but taking it in new directions. To vote on future courses, please fill out this poll.
As we approach the holiday of Purim, where one if its mitzvoth is Matanot l'Evyonim, gifts to the poor, we want to remind you that at B'nai Tikvah we have several easy ways to accomplish giving to the poor – and we can participate year round. Here is how you can help:
Put old eye glasses and cell phones to be refurbished and distributed into the box in the coat room.
Purchase a box of kosher cereal or kosher (preferably low salt) soup and place it in the bin in the lobby.
Donate linens and towels as well as clothing and shoes by putting them in the recycling bin in our yard.
These are small, inexpensive acts of kindness; but the rewards are immeasurable and these donations are particularly important NOW! Thank you for participating in this mitzvah.
For further information or to attend a meeting, please contact: Phyl Hewson or Linda Leland, Social Action/Social Justice Co-Chairs
