Torah Studies

Our learned sages impart the wisdom that delving into the study of Torah enriches life profoundly. This pursuit transcends the mere acquisition of knowledge; it fosters a vibrant exchange among students and between them and the text. Our classes will revolve around students’ interests and quandaries, ensuring stimulating discussions. I am thrilled to announce the start of a dedicated Torah study class. Our journey will commence with Genesis 1:1 and continue as long as desired. If you’re intrigued by exploring thought-provoking questions, such as the varying accounts of animals entering the ark—two by two or seven by seven—I invite you to join us. Please bring your own Tanach (Bible); this class is free of charge. If this resonates with you, kindly contact me via email at cflum1@comcast.net.

 

Shofar Blowing

Gathered in a class resonating with history and tradition, the art of Shofar blowing unveils its sacred melodies. Each resonant note carries the echoes of ancient tales and spiritual connection. Students embark on a journey, understanding the profound significance behind each breath and blast. Guided by one of our members, they embrace the Shofar’s voice, discovering not just a skill but a profound conduit to express faith, culture, and reverence. For information and registration, please email Michael Krakov at amichaelk@juno.com.
