"Sundays with Andy"
"Jewish Death & Mourning Customs"
Sunday, November 2nd @ 9:30 am

 
Just as there is a Jewish way to live, there is a Jewish way to mourn, honor the dead and bring comfort to the mourners. We will explore some of the Jewish texts designed to help us through a process we will all need to know at some point and prepare us for the time when these customs and traditions help us.

Enjoy bagels, coffee and relaxed conversation with Rabbi Andrew Klein and adults of all ages in our Temple community.
THB Libary & "Sundays with Andy"
There are several books related to Jewish death and dying available on the New Book shelf to the left after you enter the Library. There is also a shelf toward the back (windows) of the Library, on the back right, labeled "Grief," with more books on the topic. Feel free to borrow them. If there is no circulation card in the book please fill out a blank card located in the box on the New Book shelf, fill in your name and the date, and return it to the box. We hope these books will prove to be helpful.

Jodi Blankstein, Adam Dehner and Laura Weiss. The music for this program is meant to create a soulful and meditative space inside & outside of the sanctuary walls.

We now have copies of the cd "From Within - Songs of Healing and Renewal" available for purchase in the Sisterhood Gift Shop - the cost is $15.
