| |  | | | September 2008 | Welcome to Chabad@F&M! "The Heart of Jewish Student Life" | | Dear Rabbi Elazar Green, I wanted to thank you for stopping by last week at the activities fair at our booth. We are excited about the upcoming Jewish opportunities on and around the campus, and look forward to seeing you soon. | |  | Who are we? | | | First Things First... "What is Chabad at F&M?" In a nutshell, Chabad at F&M offers traditional Jewish programs and services in a family environment. For a more in depth description check out our facebook group Chabad@F&M. Feel free to join the group. http://www.new.facebook.com/group.php?gid=8090265324
| | What's coming up? | | | Thank G-d it's Shabbat! Shabbat Dinner at Chabad happens every week. If you haven't tasted Shira's Challah, then you haven't tasted Challah! Never mind the four course meal, the singing, and the Torah thoughts. A lot of prep goes into each week, and we really want to set a space for every person that wants to come, so we ask you to RSVP through Facebook. This week's event is here. http://www.new.facebook.com/event.php?eid=31861112734&ref=mf
If you don't have Facebook, (..and some people don't) feel free to shoot us an email RSVPing.
The High Holy Days Rosh Hashana/Yom Kippor
Rosh Hashana evenings are Monday Night, Sept 29 and Tuesday Night, Sept 30.
We will have services for both nights, followed by Rosh Hashana Dinner, as well as a shofar service on Tuesday and Wednesday. If you plan on attending the service or the meals, please let us know. This is especially crucial to let us know since some people plan on going home for Rosh Hashanah. Yom Kippor We are having a pre-fast meal followed by services on Yom Kippor Eve. We are also having a Neilah Service followed by a break-the-fast meal (bagels, cream cheese, lox, tuna, egg salad etc). Again, let us know what your plans are so we can prepare accordingly. | | Communication is the Key! | | | | How do you and we communicate?
