Please welcome Berman Bachurim & Banot this Shabbat - Joining us for Shabbat will be banot, Dafna and Roni, and bachurim, Nadav, Dvir and Aviad. This program brings young adult Israelis (20–23 years old) to the Berman community for a year. There are two banot, who work primarily with the middle schoolers, and three bachurim, who work primarily with the high schoolers. The visit is an opportunity for these young adults to visit our community. They will be leading youth programming over Shabbat.

Please save the date for an unforgettable musical Shabbat with special guest Dr. Elli Kranzler, Parshat Vayetzei, December 3. More details to follow!
