Cantor Wendi’s Hebrew Word of the Day
Tuesday and Thursday – 8:15 AM – Cantor Wendi’s Hebrew word of the day is back! In this laid back class, we will learn together how to identify the words most used in our prayers and in modern Hebrew. We will learn how to read, write, and recognize their meaning and learn how to say them fluently. We will meet on Facebook Live and Zoom (check the recent “Links for this Week’s Services and Classes” email for Zoom meeting id and passcode)

Rabbi Ruberg and Miriam will be leaving Tidewater at the end of June to join Adina and her family in Ohio. We will be honoring the Ruberg’s at Shabbat services on Saturday, June 11th, followed by a festive luncheon.
Please remember to send in your tributes and messages for the Rubergs, to be compiled into a “scrapbook” that will be given to them as a memento of their time with us at Congregation Beth El. We’d also like to use any photos, past or recent, you may have of the Rubergs as part of the decorations for the “Farewell to the Rubergs”. These tributes/messages and photos can be emailed to Ronnie Jacobs Cohen at ronnie@bethelnorfolk.com by June 1st.
Be sure to RSVP to sandy@bethelnorfolk.com. We are expecting a large crowd and want to be prepared with enough for lunch. Feel free to contact Ronnie at ronnie@bethelnorfolk.com with any questions or ideas.
