Why a special edition? 
 
First of all, I thought the old format was a bit boring. Second of all, Shavout is coming up, (This Monday) and that is a very special Holiday.
 
It is the day that we get the Torah. Again. 
 
I heard  someone remark one time that Shavout should be the biggest Yom Tov.  Bigger than Rosh Hashana or Yom Kippor. Bigger than Passover.
 
Without the Torah, we don't have any of those things!
 
In all Jewish communities around the world, the night of Shavout (This year on Sunday night) people prepare themselves for receiving the Torah by Staying up late into the night. (Many stay up all night). I plan on staying up at Degel Israel. If you would like to join me for some of it, give me a call on Sunday before sunset. 717-824-9966
 
For More information on Shavout please visit our website
 
Shabbat Shalom!

Ask the Rabbi - "Am I a Failure?"

Holidays
Shavuot
Shavuot marks the giving of the Torah on Mt. Sinai. The Ten Commandments are read in synagogues just as they were in the desert on Mt. Sinai over 3,300 years ago.
   
Kids
Live the Challenge
   
Multimedia
Underage Underwriters
The Mitzvah ATM is about to dispense the Torah in honor of the holiday of Shavuot. One snag, though: It wants trustworthy guarantors..
   
Women
Being Involved
You can imagine my shock when my two daughters decided they wanted to spend their hard-earned allowance and birthday money buying.. yup, a stuffed animal. And then it hit me. I figured out the secret ingredient..
 

 
EZ Cheese Pie Recipie
 
This delicious creamy cheese pie is easy to prepare, an ideal recipe for those who do not have a dairy oven. However, the graham cracker crust must be baked in a pareve or dairy oven.

GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST
9 double graham crackers
1/4 cup margarine, softened
3 Tbsps. brown sugar

Talmudic Ethics Classes Going On 
- Join Anytime! - 4 more left!
Nothing but positive feedback from participants. This class could be as popular as our Kabbalah Series if we had the time and resources to market it correctly.
 
It is already going on in Lancaster on Sundays. (Skipping this one for the holiday). It will be coming to York next.
 
 
See if you can stay away from the next Class.
 
Send me an email if you want to join the one in York.
