Love Your Neighbor as Yourself

Wednesday, September 2, 8:00 pm Rabbi Michael Schwab How do we truly see the other and understanding the commonality we share? How do we approach people who have different life experience from our own with humility and respect? How do we reach out of our comfort zone in a pandemic to support different parts of our community? Join our Rabbi Michael Schwab as we explore this part of our tradition and apply it to our daily interactions and our commitments for this new Jewish year.

Book of Jonah = Story of Noah's Ark 2.0
Friday, September 11, 12:00 pm Rabbi Alex Freedman On Yom Kippur, we read the story of Jonah as an independent tale of Teshuvah/ repentance. But Dr. Judy Klitsner of Pardes points out numerous parallels to the Noah story that enable us to understand the Jonah story in a new way. We will look at her insights and build on them.
Zooming Into the Holidays: How to Get the Most Out of Zoom

Monday, September 14, 8:00 pm Hazzan Ben Tisser
Our Synagogue is so much more than our building, and that will become even more evident as we approach the High Holy Days. We are taught that when we build Jewish homes we create a mikdash me'at, a "small Sanctuary", representative of the place where God dwelled in the Holy Temples in Jerusalem. In this session we will discuss practical ways to transform our homes into places of holiness, that we may experience all the depth and beauty of the High Holy Days, whether we do so on our own or by engaging with Beth El virtually. RSVP to Marcie Eskin (meskin@nssbethel.org or 847-926-7903) for these unique presentations in preparation for the High Holy Day season.
