We had a great meeting to discuss parshah Korach last weekend. Ellen brought some of her delicious home baked scones and we all discovered some great insights from the story of Korach's rebellion against G-d's Torah in the wilderness.
The next meeting will be Saturday, July 11th in Fort Dick to discuss parshah Pinchas (Numbers 25:1-29:31).
This week we are reading a double portion of Chukas and Balak which is why we will be reading Pinchas at the next meeting. This double portion will also bring us back into sync with the readings in Eretz Israel.
As usual, please email us at delnortebethshalom@gmail.com or call David at 707.954.6559 for more information about our meetings.
Until then, have a great Independence day and shavua tov!

Summer Time Torah Study Continues
Chodesh tov TBSers and friends of Beth Shalom!
At the last Torah study in Brookings, we met at Barbara's apartment and discussed parsha Beha' alocha which covers many different topics relevant to b'nei Israel's travels through the wilderness on their way to conquer the land of Canaan. This included how the huge group was to move as a unit through the wilderness, the people's complaints about eating only the mana and Miriam and Aaron complaint against Moses which resulted in Miriam being struck with one of the skin conditions classified under the general term "tzaaras."
We also decided to continue with the summertime sessions with our next meeting to be on saturday 6/27 at 10am, in Fort Dick, at the Del Norte Ambulance classroom, when we will discuss parsha Korach (Numbers 16:1-18:32).
So, mark your calendars and bring your thinking caps. G-d willing, we will see you then.

Friday Services This Weekend
Today is Rosh Chodesh, meaning "head of the month" which marks the beginning of the month of Nisan, during which we celebrate Pesach.
This year we will also be performing a rare blessing that is said only once every 28 years which blesses H-shem for creating the Sun. This blessing will coincide with the morning of the first night of Pesach which is doubly rare as the last time these two occasions happened at the same time was when the story of Purim happened.
This weekend Rabbi Scharnberg will be here to lead us for the Friday evening, maariv service at the synagogue in Crescent City. We usually get started around 7:00pm with the candle lighting and the service is usually followed by a kiddush over the wine and some snacks. This will also be an opportune time to discuss our plans for the pot-luck Pesach seder at the Ship Ashore Resort in Smith River.
Saturday morning we will have morning Torah study at 10:00 am at the Del Norte Ambulance facility in Fort Dick. This week we will be reading and discussing parshah Vayikra, Leviticus 1:1-5:26. You can read the entire portion online, in both Hebrew and English, here http://www.chabad.org/parshah/torahreading_cdo/aid/15574 and you can click on "Show Rashi's Commentary" for a more in-depth look at the text.
B'nei mitzvah studies will be held after Torah study for anyone interested in learning to read Hebrew and prepare for a bar or bat mitzvah.
We hope to see everyone soon. Until then, chodesh tov!
