Rabbi David Azen
Friends,
As most of you know, I wear a few hats along with my kippah, and as a performer, I’ve got an altar ego whose birthday is February 29, so I invite you to join me for the ongoing evolution of my one rabbi show in honor of his 15
th
birthday.
In addition, as Executive Director of Fresher Sacramento, we are hosting a Quantum Leap into a Fresher Year brunch in Sacramento and wanted to let you know about that as well. Please join me, or not, as you wish, and in any event, Happy Leap Year!!
Blessings and best wishes,
Rabbi Dave

The Men's Club meets the
second Sunday of each month at 9:30am.
We feature interesting speakers and presenters from the community. The activities include monthly meetings with stimulating speakers, and events such as a scotch and BBQ, wine and beer tastings, golf, and Poker games to prepare for the next Poker Tournament.
The Men's Club is open to the entire congregation and community, men and women alike. Speakers and events are scheduled on Sundays as well as in the evenings and we'll share the upcoming opportunities in the weekly and monthly announcements, as well as the website.
We appreciate your interest and support of our activities and look forward to seeing you. Our annual dues are only $20. When we meet on Sunday mornings, we serve lox and bagels, coffee, and orange juice for only $5.00 (such a good deal! Your mother would be proud).
