SHABBAT SERVICE February 6th
Parsha Mishpatim
Torah Discussion: Ed Stein |
|
|
Our annual meeting held this past Sunday reflected a wonderful sense of participation by all present. The group discussions were particularly lively and will give the Board much to discuss in the months ahead. We are grateful to all attendees and especially to all those offering their useful evaluation and feedback. We move ahead to another year supported by a
committed and engaged congregation.

A TOUR OF PROVERBS/MISHLEI WITH NEIEL
Proverbs 3:
Do not devise harm against your fellow
Who lives trustfully with you.
Do not quarrel with a man for no cause,
When he has done you no harm.
Do not be devious, for God is intimate
With the straightforward.
