The Adult Ed Committee is pleased to present "The Davening Channel," a series of workshops in Hebrew Liturgy, Language, & Sacred Literature. This is a continuing program which began on March 17th. Tune in for new episodes the 1st, 3rd, and 5th Shabbat of the month, from 12:30 to 2 p.m., in the Boardroom.
Drop In! Come to One or Come to All! Advance Registration Appreciated But Not Required.
To reserve a seat for a specific workshop, please send an email to Wendy Morrison with the date(s) and topic(s) of your choice. If you have a copy of "So you think you can Daven," please bring it to class. We will be using the blue/grey Siddur Sim Shalom for Shabbat, Festivals and Weekdays as our main text.
If you are unable to attend a class that you wanted to take, zorg zich nisht (don't fret) -- as the series continues, Wendy will make an effort to repeat the workshops which were in high demand. Previous episodes in the series have included:

- 4/21 - We Ain't Afraid of No Bima! How to take an Aliyah all the way.
- 5/5 - rerun: Let Me Read Your Psalm! Torah, not Tarot! (with new material)
