In mid December, we inaugurated a new series of Shabbat
presentations, modeled loosely on the NPR series, “This American Life,” with
TBE congregants sharing perspectives on their life journeys. These testimonies
showcase the extraordinary stories our congregants have to tell. In December, Dana Horowitz spoke of how the murder
of her father changed her life – and through her has changed us all (read her story here).
Over the next two months, we’ll hear two more stirring
testimonies.
Jan. 10 (Friday Evening): Rachael, a congregant who
grew up here will be discussing her personal journey in recovery and how she
developed her spiritual identity based on the values instilled in her at TBE.
Feb. 22 (Shabbat morning): “To Yeruham and
Back (with apologies to Saul Bellow)” - Brett Goldberg will discuss the decade
he spent living in Israel, during a time of great intensity, promise and peril
for the Jewish state.
Every congregant
has a story to share, one that weaves itself into the tapestry of TBE.
