Happy Summer! At this time of year I always feel as if I have crossed the finish line and can slow down a bit before going into High Holy Day mode in August. Our Lay-led Shabbat Summer Services begin on Friday, July 4, with a BBQ dinner. Please make sure to RSVP to the Temple Emanu-El Office and let Roberta know you’ll be joining us.
Summer Shabbat Services will begin at 7:00 p.m. Here are the lay-leaders for these services: July 4 Sam and Roberta Winograd 11 Rabbi Aaron Rosenberg and Friends 18 Hazzan Sherry outdoor service 25 Emma Zelken, Susan Rosen, Jo Michaelson Aug. 1 Armi and Jonathan Rowe 8 Stan Bloustine, Norma Hollandersky, Barbara Senges 15 Hazzan Sherry outdoor service 22 Rabbi Polly Berg Thank you to all of our Shabbat Service leaders.
I love our Rosh Chodesh group! These programs will continue through the summer. Make sure to look for Sisterhood emails for these dates. Choir rehearsals for the High Holy Days will begin on August 7. All rehearsals are on Thursday evenings at 7:00. If you’ve thought about joining us, please consider doing it this summer. I’m always looking for male voices. Contact me if you are interested.

Enjoy these two pieces, they are among my favorites. Here is one more link. I’m super excited to see Coldplay this summer with my son. It will be my first live concert at a stadium! This song is called Good Feelings. Hope your summer is filled with good feelings. GOOD FEELiNGS – Coldplay, Ayra Starr (Official Lyric Visualiser)
