Or Olam in the Loop – Our Weekly Bulletin on All Things TOO

LoopISJL Weekend: Abounding Amazement Awaits!

Many of our weekend events are wonderful opportunities to bring friends and guests. We’ll note which ones are open for friends and guests below. All events take place at Piedmont Unitarian Universalist Church in Charlotte, 9704 Mallard Creek Road.

November 20: Friday Night Kabbalat Shabbat Service

Potluck Dinner and a Sporty Shabbat – Feel Free to Invite Friends

Imagine that you are going to learn how a service works by thinking athletically. Flex your prayer muscles with warm-up, first quarter play, halftime, and more! Wear your favorite team on your sleeve (or on your kepe) – t-shirts and caps are appropriate Shabbat wear at this service.

Please remember to bring gently used coats and winter jackets for our tzedakah project in support of Crisis Assistance Ministry – we would like to help folks in need keep warm this winter!

Dinner begins at 6 p.m.

For Your Viewing Pleasure: A Window into Jewish Culture and Art

Sotheby’s is auctioning off major Jewish items this December. As Arlene Filkoff wrote us, we will likely never see these items in one place again. Thanks, Arlene, for letting us know!
The pieces in this catalogue come from all over the world, including Lublin, Toledo, Italy, Germany, America, Yemen, and more. They date from before the Inquisition in Spain to modern times.
