Weekly Message From Rabbi Birkeland
Dear Friends,
This week we started a weekly community shiur studying the book of Koheles. It was a wonderful experience studying together and exchanging ideas and thoughts. We hope you will join us for our next Shiurim Wednesdays at 7:00 PM downstairs, in the shul. If you cannot join us in person, please join us on Zoom at 7:30 PM here: Wednesday Shiur with Rabbi Birkeland.
Looking forward to our continued learning! Shabbat Shalom, Rabbi Birkeland

We are shaking from the ongoing war in Israel. 101 Israeli citizens, among them 7 Americans, are still hostages in Gaza. You can find information on them and on their families' efforts to release them here. Over 1,200 Israelis are dead with thousands more wounded. There are also innocent civilians caught in the line of fire in Gaza and Lebanon.
This is unprecedented and the most deadly attack on Israel in a generation. We must take action. In addition to our prayers, we ask you to consider making a generous donation to one of the listed causes.
The One who makes peace on high, may He bring peace down below to us. Amen
