Kiddush

From the Rabbi's Study

I was deeply moved by the outpouring of good wishes extended to me at my Installation Service. I want to thank all of the congregants who contributed their time and energy to the preparation of the beautiful Sabbath Dinner and the Installation Service. I am certain that this moment in the life of Temple Beth-EI will be remembered for many years. Of course, the presence of Rabbi Berman and Florence added a special dimension to the festivities. I am grateful to them for making the trip to Jersey City to be with us. I hope that this was only the first of many joyous occasions which I will be privileged to share with this congregation.

Adult Education

Rabbi Brickman's Monday morning Adult Education classes continue to meet in the Library in the Temple House. During the 10 : 00 a.m. session, the class discusses Jewish responses to contemporary issues in our society . Because of the way the course is structured, each class stands as an individual unit , so even if you are unable to attend every week, you should come whenever you can . The adult Hebrew Class meets at 11:00 a.m. On Tuesday, November 28 at 8 : 00 p.m., Rabbi Brickman will be presenting a one session summary of the highlights of his Monday morning course at the Newport Interfaith Center. Temple members who are residents of Newport , Hoboken and the downtown area are invited to attend all of the Adult education sessions which are held at the Newport Interfaith Center. The December session will be held on Tuesday, December 19, when we will discuss "The True Story of Hanukah." Anyone who is interested in an Adult Hebrew Class in the evening at the Newport Interfaith Center should contact Rabbi Brickman.
