Beth Shalom Schedule for the Week of April 25th

With H-shem's ever loving kindness, we will meet at the synagogue at 956 J Street in Crescent City this Friday evening at 7:00 pm for Shabbat services. These services will be led by the congregation and all friends and congregants are welcome to attend.

We will meet to light candles, hear about some Torah and have a little kiddish as a community before we retire to our respective weekends.

The following Saturday morning at 10:00 am we will meet at the classroom at the synagogue for our weekly Torah study. This week we will study parsha Emor (Leviticus 21:1 - 24:23) this week we start with laws of the Kohanim (priests) concerning cleanliness and service at the Mishkan. Then, we move onto laws of Shabbat and the Festivals followed by the commandment for the Israelites to prepare the "Show Bread" for the Mishkan. This parsha inexplicably ends with a story of a person whose mother was Israelite and father was Egyptian. This person got into a fight with another Israelite and was heard pronouncing the four letter name of G-d and we are told how this incident was resolved. Let's just say it didn't end well.

Anyway, yet another action packed Torah portion for us to discuss.

Shavua tov and be well.
