“Shal-OM,” a Jewish Meditation experience, continues this month on Saturday 14, 21, and 28. The class is held at 10:00 in the auditorium, immediately following Rabbi Shapiro’s Torah study. If you are interested in learning some of the practices of Jewish Meditation, please join us, even if you were not able to attend any of the January sessions. No previous experience in meditation (Jewish or other) is necessary, and you do NOT have to sit cross-legged on the floor!

The Sinai Temple Adult Volunteer Choir began rehearsing in late January for an evening of Sephardic music on Friday evening, March 20. The centerpiece of this service will be selections from Charles Davidson’s Sephardic Service, Libi B’mizrach. Rehearsals will continue on Wednesday evenings at 7:30 P.M. through February and early March. If you were not able to make the January rehearsal, but would still like to participate in this exciting musical event (even if you have never sung in the Adult Volunteer Choir before), please call the Temple ASAP and let me know you would like to sing with us!

Finally, you have the month of February to do your Purim “homework.” I heartily recommend renting copies of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, Swashbuckler, Treasure Island, Blackbeard, and any other pirate movies you can find! Make sure you have your eye patches and pirate hats ready, and be sure that all your swashes are buckled, mateys, because in March it will be time for… Pirate Purim! “Arrrrrrrrr!”

Ivdu et Hashem B’simcha! Serve the Holy One with Joy!
