SUMMARY:NaKh & Nosh: Grand finale of the book of Joshua!
DESCRIPTION:Although Jews are the people of the book\, there are many parts of the Jewish bible\, the TaNaKh\, we never read in services. The word TaNaKh is an acronym for the Jewish bible’s 3 categories of books: the Torah (the five books of Moses)\, Nevi’im (the Prophets)\, and Ketuvim (the Scriptures). Over the course of the Jewish year\, we read the full Torah\, but we never read the full books of NaKh (Nevi’im and Ketuvim). But that has changed at Shaar Shalom! Each session\, we study one more chapter of NaKh: discovering why these words were so sacred to our ancestors\, and why so few Jews read them (outside of Halifax\, that is). Find Rabbi Rank’s table at kiddush for a little “NaKh and Nosh.”

SUMMARY:NaKh and Nosh: Bible Beyond the Torah
DESCRIPTION:Although Jews are the people of the book\, there are many parts of the Jewish bible\, the TaNaKh\, we never read in services. The word TaNaKh is an acronym for the Jewish bible’s 3 categories of books: the Torah (the five books of Moses)\, Nevi’im (the Prophets)\, and Ketuvim (the Scriptures). Over the course of the Jewish year\, we read the full Torah\, but we never read the full books of NaKh (Nevi’im and Ketuvim).\nBut that has changed at Shaar Shalom!\nEach session\, we study one more chapter of NaKh: discovering why these words were so sacred to our ancestors\, and why so few Jews read them (outside of Halifax\, that is). Find Rabbi Rank’s table at kiddush for a little “NaKh and Nosh.”

SUMMARY:The Shaar Breakfast Club presents: The Jewish Women’s Renaissance Project
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we share our experiences\, reflections and inspirations from our recent Jewish Women’s Renaissance Project trip to Israel last November. \nSpearheaded by a generous donor and the AJC\, 14 women from Halifax\, all mothers of Jewish children under 18 and living at home\, shared an 8 day experience in Israel.  The trip consisted of touring\, classes and lectures and was designed to show us Israel’s soul rather than tourist sites.  We have all committed to monthly meetings for a year to deepen our Jewish learning\, friendship and connection to our community. Come share breakfast with some of our participants and hear how much of an impact this brief time has had on our lives and families. We hope to see you there! \nPlease RSVP via joannamirskywexler@gmail.com in order to better plan for numbers (of bagels!) \nThere will be a donation basket at the door – $5 is suggested.
