Life Long Learning, Past Event, Rabbi Klatzker

Mussar Study with Rabbi David Klatzker, Ph.D., Thursdays from 11:15 A.M. to 12:45 P.M. Starting Sep. 8th

All are welcome, both members and non-members. There is no tuition charge.
Mussar is a distinctly Jewish system for personal growth, specifically in the realm of character development.

We will discuss practical ways to develop key moral/spiritual traits — truth, patience, equanimity, gratitude and others.
Please purchase a copy of our primary text: Alan Morinis, Everyday Holiness (Note: This is NOT his book with a similar name, Every Day, Holy Day, although that is also a good read!) Additional readings will be provided.

Copies are available for about $10, including shipping (www.fetchbook.info).

To join the class, RSVP to office@tbemc.org, (908) 276-9231

Followed by lunch at the diner, if you’d like to join us!

Past Event

Pesah 5777 / Passover 2017

Pesah 5777 (Passover 2017) will start the evening of Monday 14 April and end on the evening of Tuesday 22 April.

Resources:

  • The calendar of events for Pesah 5777 at TBEMC.
  • To make sure that our homes are free of hametz (leavened products), we sell any hametz that remains in our homes.  If you would like Rabbi Klatzker to act as your agent for doing so, we have provided two versions of the authorization form that you can download:
    • PDF version, to fill out by hand, and return to TBEMC
    • Word version, which you can fill out electronically and then return to TBEMC
  • B’diqat hametz and biur hametz make up  a ceremonial “search and destroy hametz” mission, which takes place in the home on Sunday night, 13 April.  The procedure for doing this may be found in many siddurim, or you can download a PDF file that has the instructions.
