Torah Tours Topics

We look forward to welcoming the young men and women from Yeshiva University’s Torah Tours who will be joining us for Shavu’ot and giving some Torah classes over the Holiday. The topics of their classes include:

Shavu’ot night

  • Men’s class – “The second giving of the Torah – could Rabbi Akiva possibly be greater than Moshe Rabbeinu?”
  • Teen Program – “A Jew’s role in this world”
  • Women’s Chavruta learning

1st day Shavu’ot

  • Before Mincha – “Birchat Hatorah”

2nd day Shavu’ot

  • Women’s Class at 4:45 pm – “Pulling an all nighter….is it worth it?”
  • Men’s Class before Mincha- “We always talk about Sarah, Rivka, Rachel, and Leah – what about Bilha and Zilpa?”

Chag Shavuos Samayach

We are all anticipating an uplifting Shavuos  filled with Torah study and Yom Tov simcha.

Here are some of the topics that we’ll be studying over Shavuos:

Does everyone recieve a portion in Olam Haba- the World to Come?

Shavuos- a Time for Change

What Shavuos Did (or Didn’t Do) for Eating Dairy

Shaimot- Proper Disposal of Torah Material

We’re also looking forward to greeting and learning with the members of  Torah Tours.

Chag Samayach!

Burn your chometz and throw away your garbage

We will be burning chometz on Monday 4/18 at the shul at 10 Dexter St. I spoke today  with the fire deputy and he gave us the ok. We will be doing it outside on the Dexter St. side  along the basement level of the shul. You can burn your chometz from 9:15- 11:15 a.m.

I also spoke with the Dept. of Public works today and they will be making a garbage pickup for us on Tuesday morning  at the shul( Monday is Patriots Day).Bring your garbage ( chometz or non- chometz) in Malden trash bags and put it on the edge of the sidewalk next to the street on the Elm St. side of the shul. Do not drop it off in the shul parking lot or in the shul trash bins in the parking lot.  There is no problem that the pickup will be on Yom Tov since whatever chometz that may be in the trash will be sitting on city property. Remenber- your garbage must be in Malden trashbags.

Chag kasher v’samayach.
