READER'S CIRCLE - Monthly Jewish Themed Book Club
The Temple's book club has had a very successful year thus far. We have been averaging 15 attendees per meeting with upwards of 20 at some sessions. Our reviewers have done an outstanding job and the discussions have been lively and motivating.
A TREAT FOR US!
THE AUTHOR WILL BE AT OUR FIRST FALL MEETING TO SPEAK AND SIGN BOOKS
Begin your summer reading with the first book scheduled for review by the Reader's Circle Book Club on Thursday, October 7 at 7:30PM. Our reviewer, Karen Sackstein, will be reviewing the book Worlds Apart by Miriam Sobel. As an added bonus, we will have an opportunity to hear the author and to share her story. Thank you to Karen for making this possible.
Worlds Apart is an engrossing novel about a family whose lives are impacted by World War II. It depicts two brothers in America, who face, in their affluent lives, deceit, romantic and business betrayal, and bitterness.
We are looking forward to reconvening in Fall 2010.
WE’D LOVE TO HAVE YOU JOIN US!

NOSH & DRASH with Rabbi Sandy Olshansky
Bible and bagels; coffee and commentary...
What better reason to roll out of bed on Shabbat morning?
Twice a month at 9 AM, we will explore the Torah portion together to build familiarity with our sacred text and to get acquainted with some of its most provocative commentators, ancient and modern. All reading and discussion will be in English (with a little Hebrew just for flavor.)
| Re-join us in Fall, 2010 for more sessions of NOSH & DRASH! |
