SUMMARY:NaKh and Nosh: Bible Beyond the Tora
DESCRIPTION:Otni’el ben Kenaz gets a new job\, saviour for the people of Israel–which is great (until he dies). The big powerful King Eglon of Mo’av tries to subdue the Israelites\, and the humbled nation’s eyes turn to a new hero: the double-pointed-sword-slinging Ehud ben Gera. Suffice it to say\, the rest of this story isn’t the kind of thing you want to hear over dinner. But kiddush is just fine! Find Rabbi Rank’s table after morning services to join for a little NaKh (the final 2/3 of the Hebrew Bible) and a little nosh (“snack”). \n  \n

SUMMARY:Chai Mitzvah Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Chai Mitzvah is a program to enhance Jewish engagement. Like a book group\, Chai Mitzvah network groups meet monthly for meaningful text-based discussions. What sets Chai Mitzvah apart from education programs is that each person in the group builds their ‘Jewish Bucket List’ by adopting or deepening a spiritual practice\, engaging in a social action project of their choosing\, and identifying something Jewish to learn about.  The cost of all of the packets is $36 USD\, which each participant pays once at the beginning. \nAfter meeting for nine months\, participants receive a certificate of completion and a tree is planted in Israel in their honor.

SUMMARY:Breakfast Club: Water Protectors in Nova Scotia - a Film & Discussion at the Atalntic School of Theology
