followed by Hanukkah Dinner
Saturday, December 8 at 9:00 am Torah Study & Bagel Nosh
Sunday, December 9 at 9:00 am Raker Religious School
We are delighted to bring Uri Feinberg to Temple Solel as this year’s Scholar-in-Residence. Uri is a tour guide in Israel, where he has lived for most of his life. Since serving as a paratrooper in the IDF, Uri has served his country and the Jewish people as a master, Jewish educator. Uri works to strengthen Jewish identity, create relationships with the State of Israel, and encourage Jewish communities in North America to ask questions. Along with his wife, Meryl, and their three daughters, Uri is an active member of Kehillat YOZMA, the Reform community of Modi’in. Temple Solel’s last trip to Israel (December 2017) was blessed to have Uri as our guide, through ARZA World/Daat Tours. Saying Uri is the best is not hyperbole. Come experience Uri yourself! RSVP to office@templesolel.org or 480.991.7414 for Hanukkah Dinner and/or Bagel Nosh.
