Labor on the Bimah
Saturday, September 5 @ 9:00 a.m. - Labor on the Bimah - Every day there are workers in our communities who are mistreated, unfairly deprived of hard-earned wages, and denied access to basic amenities. Labor Day is an opportunity to pause and consider our role in stopping or perpetuating the unfair treatment of workers. This is why each year Jews United for Justice (JUFJ) organizes Labor on the Bimah, which leads dozens of congregations in DC, VA, and MD to reflect on workers' rights during Labor Day weekend. B’nai Shalom will be observing Labor on the Bimah on Saturday, September 5th, bringing in JUFJ board member Mike Rubin and a day laborer to speak during Shabbat morning services about the Jewish connection to worker’s rights. Please join us!
MArian and Harry Hinkes Scholar in Residence Weekend
5770 BSO Shofar Squad
- Sunday, September 13 @ 9:30 a.m. Second Rehearsal- Even if you missed the first one, it is not to late to join the squad! Be a part of the 5770 BSO Shofar Squad! Come join Rabbi Sunshine and new BSO member and expert ba’al tekia Colin Alter for a shofar sounding workshop and rehearsal. Veterans and rookies, adults and children are welcome as we learn how to sound the shofar or brush up on our technique. We will also coordinate the group logistics for shofar sounding on Rosh Hashanah (since we do not sound the shofar on Shabbat, we are sounding only on the 2nd day this year—Sunday, 9/20) so that our shofar blasts can have the most profound impact on the congregation.
