Saturday, December 10, 2022 • 16 Kislev 5783

10:00 AM - 1:00 PM

Shabbat services, including a talk by B'nai Tikvah member, Australian Vivienne Aarons, followed by Kiddush.

Vivienne is the B'nai Tikvah member who lives farthest away from Washington Street.

She participated in our recent congregational trip to Israel, and her stories of Jewish life and her experience living on a farm outside of Adelaide captivated us all. Vivienne and her stories are very special considering Australia has less than a 0.5% Jewish population. Those with her in Israel were impressed with Vivienne’s knowledge of Judaism and Israel and her love of life in the outback.

Vivienne will share some of her personal story with us and join us for the Kiddush in her honor. sponsored by Elaine Matisoff in collaboration with the Adult Education Committee. All are welcome to learn about this fascinating topic of life in rural Australia, firsthand from someone who lives there, who also is part of our B'nai Tikvah community.

Lunch & Learn with Rabbi Gordon: Who was at Sinai? Texts on Inclusion and Exclusion
Tuesday, Nov 29th 12:00p to 1:00p
This fall (November 1-December 20) we will explore a number of topics, beginning with “Who was at Sinai? Texts on Inclusion and Exclusion.” Torah speaks of Israel as a Chosen People, but also holds out the image of God as the God of all. Where does Judaism fall on issues of inclusivity and exclusivity? Might we need to balance both approaches? How would this be manifest in our work as a synagogue community?
