New Talmud Torah at Ohr
HaTorah to Begin This Falli
A new limited Talmud Torah
will begin with the new school
year at Congregation Ohr
HaTorah. The Talmud Torah will
meet every Sunday, and students
will be able to learn limited Judaic
studies. Talmud Torah is no sub
stitute for a Jewish day school
education, yet it does provide an
opportunity for those children
who have not had the benefit of
attending a Jewish day school.
The Talmud Torah classes will
be primarily for children inj
younger elementary grades. If you|
would like more information,
please contact Brenda Waxman iri|

Jewish Super Bowl Veteran to Speak in
Charlotte
Alan Veingrad then.
Former Dallas Cowboys line
backer Allan Veingrad will be the
guest speaker at Shalom Park on
Sunday, August 26 and will dis
cuss his life as a Jew in the NFL.
A veteran of a Super Bowl game
as a Dallas Cowboy, Alan also
played for the Green Bay Packers
before joining the Cowboys.
Alan is a member of a select
group of people, as there are very
few Jews in the NFL. He is very
involved in the Jewish community
in South Florida and lives a full
Jewish life. Yet when he was in
the NFL, he was the center of
attention about the Jewish life, as
he raised much curiosity among
his fellow players such as Emmet
Smith and others who were very
interested in learning more about
the Jewish people.
Alan Veingrad has a message to
today’s youth who might struggle
to identify themselves as Jewish in
a non-Jewish world. It is a mes
sage of Jewish pride and knowl
edge and the respect that comes
Alan Veingrad now.
Congregation
oraK /

with the pride. He has a wonderful
sense of humor, and his presenta
tion is funny, entertaining, and
informative. He is a gracious
speaker and welcomes questions
from the audience.
Alan will be speaking at Lemer
Hall in the Levine JCC on Sunday,
August 26 at 7:00 PM. Admission
is $15 per person. For more infor-i

Havurat Tikvah Invites Visitors for the
Days of Awe 5768

A Reconstructionist Thought:
While the Jewish people are the
constant within the evolution of
Jewish civilization, we are con
nected through our “common his
tory, experience and destiny.” We
are linked together by our shared
past, mutual present and shared
future. As Reconstructionists, we
gather in community, a people
committed to facing together the
challenge of making
our Jewish heritage
and traditions have
meaning for the con
temporary Jew.
July is past with
the Tisha B’Av
evening service July
23 and Zach Roth’s
Bar Mitzvah July 28.
We look forward to
the Days of Awe with
our warm congregation-led serv
ices:
September 8 at 8 PM, we
reflect and prepare for the Days of
Awe during the month of Elul,
culminating with the prayers of '
Selichot.
September 13 at 10 AM, we
come together to embrace Rosh
Hashanah Day One.
September 13 at 3 PM, we
will gather for Tashlich (location
TBD).
September 14 at 10 AM, we
will observe Rosh Hashanah Day
Two.
September 21 at 7 PM, we
will start seating for our 7:15 PM
Kol Nidre service.
September 22 at 10 AM, we
unite for Yom Kippur, to be writ
ten for one more year in the Book
of Life.
We look forward to reflecting
on our lives at Selichot with
our new student Rabbi,
Arlene Berger, from the
Reconstructionist Rabbinical
College in Philadelphia.
Arlene comes to us with a life
of Jewish experience: from
her Yeshiva days to her many
volunteer hours in the com
munity, her path has brought
''' ’ her to rabbinic training.
Havurat Tikvah has recent
ly procured a refurbished sefer
Torah which will be dedicated by
Rabbi Kevin Hale, the Torah
sofer, at Simchat Torah, but more
about Rabbi Hale and our “new”'
Torah next month.
Our services are warm and
friendly, a family atmosphere in
which all Jews can feel comfort
able, and guests are always wel
come.
Havurat Tikvah is an affiliate of
the Jewish Reconstructionist
Federation and we celebrate all
services and many events in the
Fellowship Hall of St Andrews
Presbyterian Church, 2201
Springdale Ave. (at Magnolia) in
the Dilworth neighborhood of
Charlotte.
