Beit Sefer Shalom

Happy Hanukkah from Beit Sefer Shalom! Thanks for joining us for all our fun festivities!!! 🕎✨

Please join us this Sunday, as we celebrate Israel on our final day of classes. During the Parent Lounge, discuss what Israel should mean for us. Afterwards, join us at 10:30 for our end-of-year celebration!

The Light Lab is excited to announce the 15 fellows in our first ever T’fillah Teachers Fellowship!
These educators come from diverse Jewish communities all around the country, with their own teaching styles, expertise, and experience. What unites them is their passion for Jewish education, the care they have for their students, and a desire to make t’fillah learning positive and powerful. We can’t wait to see what magic is made when these extraordinary people come together. Learning begins in June!

PJ Library provides free children’s books to Jewish families across the world on a monthly basis. These stories teach Jewish values, ideas, and traditions, allowing parents to create positive educational experiences where kids can ask questions and practice their reading. We welcome all Jewish families to sign up, regardless of background, family make-up, or level of observance. You can sign up for PJ Library on at pjlibrary.org.

Additionally, the Federation hosts gatherings throughout the year, where we read, participate in crafts and activities, and have fun. Join us at Caspe on February 27 at noon for our next gathering. If you have questions or would like to RSVP, email Galit, [email protected].
