Pre-Mincha shiur: Shabbat, April 22: Rabbi Yosef Adler will give his annual Mima'makim shiur in honor of Yom Ha'Shoah V'hagvura.

On Sunday, April 23, 2017 at 8:00pm, The Adult Education Committee of Cong. Rinat Yisrael will host a special event in honor of Yom Hashoah Vehagvurah.
Dr. Irit Felsen, renowned therapist and researcher of the trauma of the Holocaust, will explore: "The Effects of the Holocaust on the Children of Survivors: A Tale of Courage". Dr. Felsen will present case studies highlighting the effects of the Shoah on the second generation from two different perspectives - difficult challenges as well as unusual resilience.

Kehunah Lecture Series | Rabbi Ozer Glickman will be delivering a lecture series on Bikdushato Shel Aharon: The Practice of Birkat Kohanim, covering many concepts concerning Kehuna, with a focus on modern-day Avodah. The series will run at 8:00pm each Tuesday between Pesach and Shavuot (4/25, 5/2, 5/9, 5/16 & 5/23). The first four sessions will be source-based, yeshiva-level style study, examining the Talmludic and halachic process that led to the BIrkat Kohanim we know today; the fifth session will be a summary and include practical halachic applications. The series is open to all, men and women, kohanim and  non-kohanim, alike. While the series will build from one session to the next, each session can also be understood and appreciated as a self-contained unit; so anyone interested is welcome to attend one, some or all of the shiurim.
