The Stein Family Scholarship
Applications for the Stein Family Scholarship are now being accepted. This is a wonderful opportunity for a local Jewish student entering college for the first time and in need of financial assistance to achieve this goal. One scholarship is awarded each year. Prior recipients have attended the following schools: Brandeis University, George Mason University, James Madison University, Kent State University, University of Virginia and Virginia Tech.

Cantor Wendi’s Hebrew Word of the Day
Every day we will meet to learn the “word of the day.” In this laid back class, we will learn together how to identify the words most used in our prayers and in modern Hebrew as well. we will learn how to read, write, and recognize their meaning and learn how to say them fluently as well. We will meet on Facebook Live where I will be able to interact and answer questions as we go. Looking forward to learning with you!
The Mishlo’ah Manot boxes will be delivered by our volunteers next Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. If you will not be in town or if we need special instructions, please email the Beth El office by noon on Monday.
