                                                                            Introduction to the siddur

                                                                            Do you ever wish you had a greater understanding of Shabbat Services?  Do you wish you knew the meaning and history behind the prayers in our Siddur?
                                                                            Beginning on Sunday October 24 at 7 p.m., this new adult education class led by Rabbi Antonio could be the answer!  Please join us once a month as we delve deeply into the weekly service, examining it prayer by prayer.

                                                                            Dates: October 24, November 28, December 12 (more dates TBA)
                                                                            Time: 7-8:30 pm. We’ll start on time.


                                                                            Cost: FREE. However, there will be a tzedakah box and the donations collected at each session will go into the  rabbi's discretionary fund (used for charity and inviting for meals at the JCC people who otherwise would not be able to afford it).

                                                                            The class will be held at different congregants homes, and it is open only to JCJ members or JCJ students. If you would like to participate, please contact the Rabbi (rabbiantonio@gmail.com) for directions.
