Chag Shavuot Sameach, from the staff and leadership of Congregation Beth Torah!
At Mt. Sinai, every Jewish soul was present to receive the Torah. This Shavuot, we come together to celebrate, learn, and receive Torah once more - growing in knowledge, connection, and community.
From Love and Logic to Jewish meditation, from entrepreneurship to writing tips, from fun facts about language to so much more, this Shavuot, you’ll have the chance to learn from members of our own community as they share the topics they’re passionate about. Each session will be a short, engaging presentation, with bonus points for weaving in a Jewish text or value!
Whether you are teaching or just attending to learn and be in community, join us for our TED Talk-inspired evening of big ideas and Jewish learning!
As we approach the holiday of Shavuot, a time when we celebrate the "first fruits" of the harvest, we also take a moment to honor the "new fruits" of our community — the beautiful babies who have joined our lives this past year!
During Shabbat services on Saturday, May 23, all caregivers, parents, and grandparents are welcome to join us on the bimah for a special Aliyah and blessing. It will be a joyful opportunity to celebrate your child's arrival, recognize the blessings of new life, and share in the sweetness of this season together with our community.
