Dear Members and Prospective Members of the Congregation Beth HaMidbar Religous School,

We are a small but extremely dedicated staff who wish to provide your children with the best Jewish Education within our reach. Rhonda Chatman teaches the class and may be reached at YumaSynagogue@gmail.com.

We expect to have four students enrolled for the 2015-2016 school year and are of grade school age. We meet approximately every other week from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.. One Sunday each month we have a special session with the rabbi. We will be helping the Adult Community to decorate and learn the special Prayers for Sukkot. We are also planning to join with the adults throughout the year for special events.

Men’s Club

October 28, 2011 By urjnetworkadmin in Men's Club

Friendships are made here!

The Men’s Club offers the opportunity to expand one’s circle of friends, to get involved in Jewish affairs, and to contribute to our Congregation.

PATHS TO COMMUNITY

The Men’s Club is an auxiliary organization. Our primary purpose is to provide social, educational, cultural and spiritual services for the men, as well as for the broader community. While we provide opportunities for men in our congregation to gather together for fellowship, recreation, personal growth and mutual support, we also work to support the mission, services and activities of the Congregation.

We devote most of our time and resources to activities in these four areas:

Social interaction among the men of the congregation in order to build friendships among men and their families in support of our objective of building Jewish “Community” among our members.
Intellectual interests of men in the Congregation. We will program for the unique needs and interests of men, being sensitive to the role men play in modern American families, egalitarian congregational life, and in Jewish family life.
Spiritual interests of men in the Congregation. These spiritual interests are founded in our Jewish traditions, but open to modern approaches to spirituality, especially men’s spirituality.
The interests of our men ing’milut hasadim (deeds of kindness) and tikkun olam (working to serve and improve our congregation, our local community and our world).

WE BRING YOU…

Annual Family BBQ
Superbowl Bash
World Wide Wrap

Most importantly, a havurah provides an opportunity for you to meet others who share your values and interests.

Yesod (Adult Ed)

October 28, 2011 By urjnetworkadmin in Adult Education

At Congregation (~: Chai :~) we believe that Jewish learning is a lifetime project. Judaism offers a wealth of rich, deep, sophisticated ideas which are most useful for adults. Adults make decisions about raising children, choosing careers, medical care for themselves and loved ones, where to live and whom to love. Adults need the guidance of a religious system to help them through this maze of serious choices. Adults also experience fully the deep sorrow of loss and the great joy of true love. Jewish tradition can guide adults throug these emotional highs a lows.

Adult learning at (~: Chai :~) equips our lifelong learners to face the complexity of their lives armed with Jewish knowledge. Whether taking a Basic Judaism course, or an advanced Talmud seminar, our learners come away from the experience with a greater appreciation of Judaism’s profound depths, and a greater understanding of how to lead an inspired life.

Please join us at any one of our course offerings this year. Membership is not required, and many of the classes have a nominal charge or are free!
