Saturday Morning Shiur
Saturday April 12, 12:30 pm
Rabbi Michael’s monthly lunch-and-learn Shiur at around 12.30 pm in the Baron Harris Room.
Lunch will not be provided; it will, instead, be a Chavura-style lunch – please bring for yourself, and if possible, something that you can share with others; tea and coffee will be provided.
These informal sessions are always interesting and entertaining, starting with a discussion loosely based on the weekly Parasha, which generally leads to amusing tales from Michael’s experiences as a Rabbi over many years.
No prior knowledge is required.

Yom Ha’shoah
Wednesday April 23, 7:00 pm to Thursday April 24, 7:00 pm
At SPS each year, to commemorate Yom Ha’shoah, we light six yahrzeit candles, to remember the 6 million Jews who died during the Holocaust in World War 2. We also hold a short service, which includes the mourner’s Kaddish as well as a memorial prayer. Our custom is to invite a Holocaust survivor, or a member of their family, to talk to us about their experiences. What they went through creates a lasting impression on all who hear them.
