TOPIC:
Do all Jews go to Hell?
Are there only
Christians in Heaven?
with Rabbi Barry Silver and
Guest Pastor Fritz Aufdencamp
Thursday, AUGUST 5 at 7:00 pm ET
LIVE on COMPUTER or PHONE
Guest Pastor Fritz Aufdencamp was charged with heresy for preaching that Jews do not go to Hell. Pastor Aufdencamp feels that Christians should abandon the concept of Heaven and Hell and believes that this tenet of Christianity led to the Holocaust.
This should be an exciting and lively discussion and all are invited to attend and participate as desired. All agree to disagree agreeably. We welcome one and all to join in on Thursday, Aug.5 at 7:00 pm to this Zoom session!

As you know, we are working on our upcoming High Holy Day services to be held in the auditorium of the Santaluces High School in September.
We need volunteers for assistance in setup and preparations for these services, as well as door ushers for each service.
We really need your help! We would be most appreciative! We cannot do this without volunteers!
Please email to INFO@LDORVADOR.org or call 561-968-0688 to let us know that YOU or someone you know WILL VOLUNTEER: please let us know which dates would work for you and for which task you would like to volunteer. We thank you so much in advance for your help, which we very much need!
|
BUSINESS AND CORPORATE SPONSORSHIPS available for the upcoming High Holy Day Services
Any businesses, any professionals ... we would like to canvas all for their SUPPORT. We, in turn, will help promote them from L'Dor Va-Dor - please share the word! If each of us could help to find one sponsor, we would be so fortunate! Great fundraising for the congregation!
Sponsorships start at $100 contribution, but, of course, we will also welcome contributions / sponsorships of any dollar value. Your doctors, dentists, hair and/or nail salons, lawyers, auto mechanics, florists, etc. This would help L'Dor Va-Dor in a BIG WAY by offsetting some of the expenses!
|
L'Dor Va-Dor is governed by a Board of Trustees like any business. Due to the pandemic, we did not hold any elections in 2020 and now are faced with the dilemma of several board members being at the end of their term (or extended term).
THIS IS NOT A DIFFICULT OR TIME-CONSUMING VOLUNTEER POSITION, BUT it is CRITICAL, needed, and a necessary role in the operations of our synagogue AND we need representation from our L'Dor Va-Dor Member Family.
Please won't YOU volunteer for a position on our Board and help L'Dor Va-Dor to grow?!
|
NOTE TO THOSE THAT PARTICIPATED IN OUR NEW HAVDALAH SERVICE on July 31st:
Todah Rabah, thank you so much for being with us and making this very special and heartfelt service so wonderful. Thank you to Andy Susman for all the work he did in preparation, creating, and leading this service. His words, prayers, and songs were amazing angd filled with emotion! Thank you to Carol Robbins-Garrett for joining in and singing some beautiful songs also! This was a lovely and inspiring evening for all! IF YOU MISSED IT, you can enjoy the recording of this service by CLICKING HERE. We intend to offer this again and each time, we promise it to be fresh and new for all of us!
Wishing you all a good week and good health. These are scary times once again for all, where the covid-19 and delta variant are trying to put a damper on us and our activities, regardless of vaccination or not. Please be safe and, if you have not as yet been vaccinated, PLEASE CONSIDER DOING THIS PLEASE! We all want to remain safe and healthy and those not vaccinated could be carriers or spreaders of the virus. Please wear masks and stay safe!
Feel free to join in this week for our TWO DISCUSSIONS, the first on Tuesday, Aug.3 at 7 pm with our weekly Chat with Rabbi, with our guest Cantor Glenn Sherman and Rabbi Barry, and the second on Thursday, Aug.5 at 7 pm with a special discussion with Pastor Fritz Aufdencamp and Rabbi Barry, speaking about Heaven and Hell, a wild evening! Both are on Zoom and we hope you will join in on the fun!
Enjoy the week and take care, enjoy lots of peace, tranquility, love, laughter, and perhaps, a smattering of the Olympics coverage as well. We miss you and hope to see you on August 13th for our live (and safe) service at the Fellowship Hall!
With Shalom,
Sharon Leibovitz
