Shabbat shalom! Lots going on in the next week or so. Tonight, at Congregation Bonai Shalom, monthly Musical Kabbalat Shabbat services return. This Sunday morning, February 2nd, there is the first of four upcoming information meetings about the Boulder community trip to Israel coming in May, 2020.
Tuesday is a Lunch and Learn at the Boulder JCC about Jewish Genealogy (not the same as Jewish Geography, but close).
Next Wednesday morning is the next Shalom Boulder, welcoming newish and Jewish to our community, and that evening, Boulder County Center for Judaism hosts a Farbrengen for Yud Shevat.
And Thursday night, CU Boulder’s Program in Jewish Studies hosts the 2020 Bender Visiting Scholar speaking on “Toward a History of Jewish – Native American Relations.”
Stay warm, and have a great weekend and a busy week. Enjoy!
