ADULT EDUCATION
Talmud class with Mitch Parker
Wednesdays, 7:30-8:30 p.m., at the synagogue
We are currently studying Brachot, the first section of the Talmud. Interested? Contact Mitch: mitch@bnaiisraelwb.org
"You too can give a D'var Torah"
Between October 29th and January 14 we will read the book of Braishit. This first book of  the Torah is full of stories of love, conflict and intrigue as families try to grapple with both the mundane and the extraordinary. Here is your chance to prepare a dvar Torah on the lives of our earliest ancestors and their families. If you are interested, please let Mitch know. A little secret: the preparation is often the best part of the process. Travel and Learn: If you are interested in being on the organizing committee for a potential B'nai Israel tour of the Jewish South, please contact Mitch: mitch@bnaiisraelwb.org.
