New Shiur Series With Rabbi Wiener - STARTS TONIGHT!
Tuesdays April 25, May 2, 9, 16, and 23, 7:30-8:15pm - Classroom F
After Pesach, Rabbi Wiener invites boys in 6th-8th grade to a series of shiurim which will meet on Tuesday nights covering topics relevant for young men in the pre and post bar mitzva age range. Topics will include Tefila Betzibbur, The laws of the Shaliach Tzibbur, Biur Tefila and more.

Kehunah Lecture Series - STARTS TONIGHT!
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). Classroom D-E
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.

Parsha shiur: Thursday April 27, 8:30pm: Rabbi Jeremy Wieder will be speaking.
