Let Them Make Me a Sanctuary: Shabbat Services This Friday

Parsha T’rumah is replete with sensations and colors — all in the service of creating sacred space.  This Friday we’ll  consider the question: What does it mean, in our day and age, to build a sanctuary?  What gifts do we bring and how do we sustain safe havens?  We’ll also celebrate as Charlotte Miller receives her first aliyah as the newest (local) member of the tribe.  Charlotte will be sponsoring the oneg, so no one need bring anything; just come and enjoy!

Date: Friday, Feb. 23
Time: 7:00 pm
Location: Piedmont Unitarian Universalist Church, 9704 Mallard Creek Rd

Purim: From Serious Study of the Book of Esther to Costume Contest and the Performance of Erev Shabbos Fever, A Purim Shpiel!

We’ll be holding a megillah reading and discussion either Friday night, March 6, or Saturday morning, March 7. Most likely a potluck/bring your own dinner bag will accompany the reading. Time and place TBA.

Our family Purim extravaganza will be Saturday, March 7, at Advent Lutheran Church. Israeli dancing will start the afternoon at 3:30 and the craft table will be open, followed by short and interesting Megillah synopsis, potluck dinner, a costume contest, and a Purim shpiel of hilarious proportions.  We promise.  🙂
