About the spiel ... Does the ever-changing landscape of this year's election leave you fearful and perplexed? Do you wonder who will face off with whom – and how it will all play out?
Join us on Wednesday, March 23, for live election coverage! Our Purim spiel, called "G.rand O.ld P.urim," includes these characters:
- Haman, or The Dangerous Man with the Comb-Over
- Esther, whose name was Hillary before she converted
- Mordechai, who feels the Bern – and is the Bern
The spiel also includes Rachel Maddow, protesters, cops, and an invisible enemy called ProSIS. You won’t want to miss this year’s Purim spiel at Havurah!

Monday, Oct 2nd 1:00p to 4:00p
We are excited to bring mahjong back to Havurah. It is a fun, social activity that builds community, encouraging new friendships and cementing old ones. And while some of us may play elsewhere as well, we all agreed that restoring its place as an ongoing congregational activity will be a good fit for Havurah and those of us who play or want to learn the game. So please don't hesitate to join us! -

OctOctober 3 , 2023(IP) Tuning In to Jewish Texts
Tuesday, Oct 3rd 7:30p to 8:45p
Jewish text study is similar to tuning a radio. Each type of text—TaNaKH (Bible), Rabbinic Literature (Midrash and Talmud), Medieval Commentary (Rashi, ibn Ezra, Nachmanides) and Mystical (Kabbalistic and Hasidic)—operates on a different frequency. Each seeks to clarify what we are hearing about the world, following a set of rules. Each reads the world’s signals. We will spend two weeks tuning into specific passages from the four genres. Hebrew is not necessary for this overview , although we will read some of the “greatest hits” together in the original. Transistor radios preferred to digital, because we are all subject to static. Led by Rabbi Joey Wolf. -
