This Week at Adas Emuno

Dear Friends,
  The elections are over, and we won't be seeing those endless candidate ads. But the discussion of its implications is far from over. I'll offer a reflection as it affects the American Jewish community, at our Shabbat Evening Service (7:30 PM).

  The Reform movement is preparing to publish a new Torah commentary, and this Shabbat is piloting a sample chapter in many congregations, including are own. This will take place at our Shabbat Morning Torah Study (10:00 AM), and your feedback will be conveyed to the editors.

    Our Adas Emuno Book Club meets via zoom on Monday (7:30 PM) to discuss the acclaimed historical novel, "An Officer and a Spy". Given that it is about the notorious Dreyfus affair, which revealed widespread antisemitism in French society, it is all too relevant. 

   We're screening a classic movie, The Sound of Music, after school next Sunday the 16th at 12:15 (after learning that many of our young families have never seen it). A free lunch is included; please RSVP by Wednesday to adasschool@gmail.com. This past summer I visited sites associated with the musical in Salzburg, and saw a delightful marionette production which reminded me of how good the music really is.

  On this Veterans Day weekend, we remember with gratitude those who served and those who continue to protect our country.

Shabbat shalom,
Rabbi Schwartz
