THIS WEEK AT NAFSHENU

from Rabbi David

Before telling you all about what's upcoming at Nafshenu, I want to make sure you're tuned into this week's main event: Our family-friendly Purim Party, megillah reading and dinner at Karen and Steve Marinoff's home. 
It's 6-8:30pm Saturday. 

Please come, wearing a costume if that's your thing.   Karen and Steve will host and provide a complete meal and a meal for the kids. Sign Up Here! The suggested donation is $18 per person and $36 per family!

ALSO THIS WEEK:

Tomorrow, Nafshenu has our regular Thursday night Torah discussion (7-8pm). Assuming that the underage people are off-camera, we'll take up some of the more adult themes in the Book of Esther: drunken misbehavior, sexual objectification, patriarchal power abuse, violent ant-Jewish racism and the issue of responding to violence with violence. And as we move into the next book of the Torah, Leviticus, we'll look at one of the less-well-known aspects of the Temple sacrificial system: the Grain offering, or Mincha. Its a lot less messy than all the animal sacrifices we read about. What does it have to say to us today?
