Winter Swim

Dear Fellow Members,

Arthur Malihimov, Lenny Abramov, Alex Abramov, and Myself are proud to be offering Winter Swim Sessions sponsored by Heights Jewish Center to the Jewish Community at the Keller Center on Notre Dame Campus. There will be 4 Sunday Sessions, with separate times for Men and Women on Jan 12, Jan 26, Feb 2, and February 9.  All proceeds will go directly to Heights Jewish Center. Please show your support by attending any of the sessions and also have some fun at the same time. If these session are well attended, we will consider adding more sessions. If you would be interested in volunteering at the door for any of these sessions please contact our committee via the email or phone number on the flyer.

I have attached our flyer to this email. 

Sincerely,

Josh Mendelson

Kiddush this Shabbos is sponsored by Rabbi Zion Jacar in memory of his mother Rina Chala.

Please note: There will be no Babysitting Program in Shul this Shabbos morning. 

Shacharis this Wednesday is at 8am.

Mincha this coming week will be at 4:55pm.  Several of our regulars are not able to join us for Mincha-Maariv until the end of the winter. Please, help us guarantee a minyan this week.

 

The Torah and Tolkien lectures concluded this past Monday. I think they were a huge success, well attended, and I enjoyed giving them immensely.  The next series, on Navi, will take place this spring. Stay tuned for more details. Also, if anyone has ideas for other "different" or even standard topics for one or more shiurim, please let me know.

 

Good Shabbos
