Shabbat shalom! Tonight marks the beginning of this year’s “National Day of Unplugging,” a Shabbat without connected technology. How will you unplug? One way is to attend Bonai Shalom’s First Friday services, dinner, and a panel discussion on how to reduce gun violence. On Sunday night, Boulder’s Chevra Kadisha welcomes a nationally-known author speaking on the Jewish views of the afterlife. And the Boulder Jewish Film Festival wraps up this weekend, running through Sunday, March 9th.
Have a good weekend, be safe and stay warm! Here are this week’s stories from the BJN:
