Shabbat shalom! Once again, our thoughts and prayers this shabbat will be especially directed in support of our fellow Coloradans affected by the wildfires that continue raging in the state, and those bravely fighting those fires.

Even though it seems like things are slowing down for the summer, there are still some great activities coming up in the community. For example, local Jewish author Michelle Auerbach will be signing her new book, “The Third Kind of Horse” on Saturday, June 22nd at 3:00 pm at Innisfree Poetry Bookstore & Cafe at 1203 13th Street Suite A, Boulder, CO 80302 (www.Innisfreepoetry.com) and Kathryn Bernheimer will be at the Boe on Sunday June 23rd at 4:00 pm introducing the documentary “Hollywood Sound: Music for the Movies.”

Check out our stories below, and also check out our new friends at Radio Chavura, who have a new program every Sunday at 6:30 p.m. on 990 KRKS AM Denver or you can stream it from their site.

Have a great weekend!
