Come and enjoy our wonderful musical duo, Lena on piano and David on guitar. FOLLOWED BY, a Potluck Shabbat dinner in the Unity Social Hall downstairs. This will be sponsored by the wonderful Shara and Paul Beck, in honor of Paul’s, 85th Birthday. He would prefer we ignored the day but that’s not our style here at Or Atid.

By fcacing that truth head on, we are given the opportunity to wrestle, question and try to make sense of our lives in light of our inevitable deaths.

What is God?

Discovering the truths that can be known about God, if any. This is a class of discovery. In true Jewish fashion, we can say little about God with any certainty other than God is not human and God exists beyond our limited human scope. So, let’s dig in and search for what can be known and engaged meaningfully. Let rabbi Julie Know that you’re coming.
