Please join us at this event geared towards adults and children, making illustrated and collaged cards to send or hand deliver to friends and family. We will use supplies you can purchase, upcycle, or have at home already. Carolina Martinez will demonstrate techniques for making cards, and will help if anyone needs ideas. Please RSVP for the Zoom link.

People love Havurah! Curious community members looking to connect frequently send us inquiries about who we are and what membership is like. These conversations are interesting and fun to have, with no "selling" involved--just an opportunity to share what we like and know about Havurah. If you would like to help staff by chatting with folks who contact us with general inquiries, please RSVP here for a training session. At the session, you will learn about what questions tend to be asked and how to answer them, where to refer folks for questions you can't answer, and about Havurah's process for becoming a new member. If you decide to volunteer in this way, Havurah staff will support you all the way! We'll be in Zoom Room Bet.

We gather to find some moments of quiet and shalom. Led by Rabbi Benjamin, Adela Basayne, Deborah Eisenbach-Budner, Nancy Becker, or Ria de Neeve. We will meet both in-person (Havurah Sanctuary or Library) and in Zoom Room Bet. Log in to the website and then visit havurahshalom.org/zoom or call the office for join info (503-248-4662). All are welcome.

Fiction/Short Stories, 141 pages. Mixing historical and biographical facts, made-up legends plus other fictions and exaggerations, Castel-Bloom writes an unconventional saga of her family, the Kastils. As in other sagas, there are family meals and get-togethers, deaths and funerals, sayings and stories, and things that are not to be mentioned because they disgrace the family. But here these elements all slip and slide sideways into parody and the absurd. Discussion led by Joel Beinin in Zoom Room Bet.

For all who want a regular prayer practice and for people saying Kaddish. We meet both in person and streaming online in Zoom Room Aleph. All are welcome. Please email info@havurahshalom.org for join info.

An in-depth look at the weekly Torah reading, led by congregants. No prior knowledge or study is necessary. At Havurah Shalom and in Zoom Room Bet. Nonmembers needing the Zoom link, please email info@havurahshalom.org.

Please join us in welcoming Gavin Galderisi as a Bar Mitzvah and member of our community. This service will take place in Zoom Room Aleph. Please contact info@havurahshalom.org for access.
