Confirmation at Temple David is a celebration of Jewish education and commitment. It was important to the classes of both 5780 and 5781 for Confirmation to be in-person so rather than celebrate on Shavuot, we will be celebrating during Shabbat morning services on July 31 at 10 a.m. in-person and online.

Mazal Tov to the families and teachers of:

Rebecca Gerse, daughter of David and Debra Gerse;
Joshua Goldberg, son of Rick and Reena Goldberg;
Elijah Sloan, son of Darrin and Kara Sloan, grandson of James and Maxine Sloan;
Isaac Sloan, son of Lee and Robin Sloan, grandson of James and Maxine Sloan.

TEMPLE DAVID
SCHOLAR-IN-YOUR-RESIDENCE
WEEKEND

APRIL 23-25

Featuring Rabbi Stephen A. Karol
On Zoom; find the links at
www.templedavid.org/athome

Rabbi Karol, Rabbi Emeritus of Temple Isaiah in Stony Brook, New York, was ordained at Hebrew Union College in 1977 and has served at Temple Beth Zion (Buffalo, NY), Congregation Sha’aray Shalom (Hingham, MA), and Temple Isaiah. He currently teaches at Temple Isaiah and at the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Stony Brook University. Rabbi Karol is the author of Finding Hope and Faith In The Face Of Death, which is about giving faith, comfort, and inspiration when a death occurs. It is relevant for Jews and Christians as well as those who don’t identify themselves as believers.

A signed copy of Rabbi Karol’s book will be available for purchase by contacting him directly or by contacting Elaine Wolfe at elainew@templedavid.org.

EVENTS (See Featured Events for other sessions)

SATURDAY, APRIL 24 at 7 p.m.
Grab a glass of wine and some snacks and Zoom in as Rabbi Karol talks about How Women Are Treated In the Hebrew Bible – Our Four Foremothers: Sarah, Rebekah, Leah, and Rachel. The Hebrew Bible was the product of a patriarchal society. Although the Four Matriarchs are sometimes overshadowed by the Three Patriarchs – Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob – each woman has her own distinctive story. This session will be followed by Havdalah.

Please join us on Zoom for a very exciting and uplifting weekend.
There is no charge for this weekend; however, donations are always appreciated.
We look forward to learning with all of you.
