Shabbat Morning Torah Study with Rabbi Olshein
9:15 am | Live and Interactive on Zoom
*ONLINE ONLY*
Meeting ID: 958 5868 0146 | Passcode: Torah
Each Saturday morning, we gather online to examine the Torah portion assigned to the week through the lens of Mussar, a Jewish ethics-based framework where we work on improving our soul-traits. While searching for new insights regarding how our ancient tradition applies to our modern lives, we use “The Mussar Torah Commentary,” edited by Rabbi Barry Block, as the basis for this year’s discussion. (Please note: While it is not necessary to purchase the book as all materials are provided onscreen, we do encourage you to purchase the book as it is a great resource for further study.)
No prior Torah Study experience required … just hop online and BYOC ("Bring Your Own Coffee")!

Sadie Barmach will become a Bat Mitzvah on Saturday, April 9, 2022. Sadie is the daughter of Jenny and Jamie Barmach and the sister of Ethan Barmach. She is the granddaughter of Barbara Barmach of Chandler and Leon Levy of Rancho Mirage, CA. Sadie is currently in the seventh grade and among her hobbies, she enjoys playing softball, listening to music, watching her favorite television shows and movies, and especially playing with her two dogs.
Sadie focused her Mitzvah project on collecting donations from family and friends to make over 200 medical kits that will be sent to those impacted by the war in Ukraine. A portion of the funds collected that was not used for the medical kits was also donated to the Chabad Ukrainian relief efforts.
Mazel tov, Sadie!

Sundays throughout 2022.
Volunteer to Feed the Hungry in 2022!
I-HELP is an acronym for Interfaith Housing Emergency Lodging Program. It is a program of Tempe Community Action Agency that partners a number of faith communities, clubs, and organizations to combat homelessness. Temple Emanuel is responsible for planning and preparing dinner and lunches for the first two Sundays of each month.
Jim Flegenheimer, Temple Emanuel I-HELP (Interfaith Homeless Emergency Lodging Program) coordinator, is looking for volunteers (and specifically groups of individuals) to cook and serve food (children are welcome, but should be 12 or older) on the following Sundays in 2022:
July 3
August 7
August 14
September 4
September 11
October 2
October 9
December 11
We have two no-contact/socially-distant options for volunteers/groups to participate:
1. Prepare at the church (as usual) and have the food delivered on carts by other volunteers
2. Prepare and drop the food off in the parking lot with prearranged volunteers who will then take and pass it out
Please consider volunteering your time to perform this mitzvah, and e-mailing Jim at lpflegy@cox.net.
