From Future Jewish Leaders to the Shabbatones

Dear Haverim:

* Tomorrow, Friday morning, 7:30 a.m., @ CBS. The 5th grade of the Albert Einstein Academy (the finest Jewish day school in the Brandywine Valley), is braving the cold to chant Torah at the Morning Minyan, and is helping provide goodies for a celebratory breakfast, as we celebrate Rosh Hodesh Adar.  This is the beginning of a new AEA effort to more deeply serve the surrounding Jewish community.  It is important that as many CBS congregants as possible attend services to encourage these young Jewish leaders (one being my own 10 year old Shira -- she came as a new-born to CBS, and now she is chanting Torah for you).

*Tomorrow, Friday, 6:30 p.m., Kabbalat Shabbat, (6 pm Happy Hour).  Drash: Rosh Hodesh: Celebrating Women in the Parashat Hashevuah – And Beyond! This Shabbat from the lighting of Shabbat candles through Birkat Ha Mazon for Sisterhood Shabbat, we will be celebrating the role of women in Judaism and at CBS.

*Saturday, 9:30 a.m., Sisterhood Shabbat services.  The talented ladies of CBS will be leading every aspect of Shabbat services.  Guest darshanit: Lior Ron, ShelichaHer topics: Changing Role of Women in ISRAEL. Kiddush lunch prepared by the Men’s Club!!
-Lay-led Torah study.  20 minutes after Motzi, Torah study participants will be invited to regroup in the Chapel for one hour of Torah study to deepen their Shabbat experience.

*Sunday, 9 a.m., Morning Minyan & Hebrew School
- 11 a.m. , The Shabbatones, UPenn’s premiere Jewish acapella group, fresh from their engagement at The White House, singing a potpourri of Jewish, Israeli and popular music, sponsored by the Kraft Education Comm.
Join us for great music, great learning, wonderful Jewish women, and Shabbat joy!
Shabbat shalom!

Rabbi Michael
