of American Judaism (Orthodox, Conservative, Reform,
Reconstructionist, etc.) as they have developed and continue to
evolve. Emphasis will be placed on the issues and challenges facing
contemporary Judaism, including such “post-60’s Judaisms” as Jewish
Renewal, Humanistic Judaism, etc.

 The Worship Service: History, Structure & Content
Instructor: Rabbi Steve
Sundays, 12:00 - 1:00 PM
2/19, 3/18, 4/22
Services are an
enigma to many of us, as they seem to be nothing more than a multitude
of prayers strung together. It might come as a surprise to learn that
each service has a definite structure and flow. In this 3-part series,
we shall examine the History, Structure and Content of the service.
Join us and you’ll feel much more comfortable and “in control” during
services.
Fee: $18 |

Torah Study Group
One Saturday a Month, Following Morning Services
The Beth Emeth
Torah Study group meets at least once a month after Saturday kiddush
to study and discuss a prepared text on the parasha. The format is
informal, and drop-ins are welcome. Look for us where the kiddush is
held (social hall) or in the library. Exact dates for each month
will be published in the Beth Emeth calendar, weekly announcements,
and last minute updates on the
cbe-va-tora@yahoogroups.com email list (please consider signing
up).
No cost, no registration required. |

Ethics
Instructor: Rabbi Steve
Sundays 12:00-1:00 PM
11/13, 2/12, 4/15
The Madoff
scandal, which involved so many Jews as both perpetrators and
victims, inevitably raises deep questions in people’s minds about
the relationship between Judaism and business. In this 3-part series
we shall address and examine the fundamental principles of business
ethics from a Jewish perspective.
