This Week at Beth Shalom

We will again greet Shabbat Friday evening at 7 at the temple, 956 J St, Crescent City. Jill Munger will be leading services.

Torah study continues from 10 AM to noon at the temple. The parsha this week is Shoftim, Deuteronomy 16:18-21:9. It is a kind of constitution for the state that will be established when the Hebrews enter the land.


Hebrew class continues Sundays at 11 AM at the new location in Brookings. Sarah and Morris are the teachers. Call Vivien at 541- 412- 7105 for more information.

High Holy Day services are coming up. Rosh Hashana services will be led on the second day by Rabbi Les Scharnberg. We will have an evening service Thursday, September 9 and a morning service September 10. Rabbi Joseph Hample will lead Yom Kippur services Saturday morning, September 18. I will lead a Kol Nidre service Friday night September 17 as a volunteer.

We would appreciate dues for the holidays and the coming year. We don't turn anyone away from services, including High Holy Day services, but we are asking for a donation of $360 per family. Please e-mail Barbara Johnson or Judi Lewis if you have questions. Barbara can be reached at chicdrpsy@yahoo.com, Judi's e-mail is judiwlewis@charter.net. Checks can be mailed to us at PO Box 1557, Crescent City, CA 95531.

The next edition of the Beth Shalom newsletter is in process. If you would like to submit an article, please send a note to delnortebethshalom@gmail.com.

We received a gift of two books from Drs. Howard and Sylvia Lenhoff. One is about their daughter Gloria's miraculous life, the other about their work with Ethiopian Jews. They can be borrowed from the temple.

Congratulations to our own Jacklyn Sandler on being crowned Miss Del Norte at the pageant this past Thursday at the Del Norte County Fair.

We wish a full and speedy recovery to Stuart Hample, father of Beth Shalom member Rabbi Joseph Hample.

I will be at a Jewish conference in Los Angeles this weekend. I hope to see everyone next weekend.
