Counting the days until Rosh HaShanah?!  Are you ready for a new year?  Who do you want to be?  Join Rabbis Nadya and Victor Gross, Rabbi Ori Har DiGennaro and Rabbi Marc Soloway for Friday night dinner on September 7th  to help us begin to confront the awesome days ahead!  Each of them will share favorite teachings or spiritual practices connected to this season and we will then have an open discussion to help us navigate the inner and outer journeys of the Holidays.

Preparing Mind, Body and Soul for the Days of Awe is the next in the series of First Fridays at Congregation Bonai Shalom with Shabbat dinner and a speaker each month.

6:00 pm – Kabbalat Shabbat Services, 7:00 pm – Dinner, followed by the panel of rabbis
