Congregation Sholom

Congregation Sholom will hold a potluck dinner for members prior to services on Friday, March 13, in Clubhouse 3, Room 9, at 5 p.m. A sign-up sheet has been sent to members. Services are conducted by Rabbi Karen Isenberg and will begin at 6:30 and will also be available on Zoom. Rabbi Mike Mymon will lead the hybrid service on Saturday, March 14, in Clubhouse 3, Room 9, and on Zoom at 10 a.m.

The Torah reading will be Vayakhel-Pekudei. Vayakhel (He Assembled) opens as God commands the Israelites to observe the Sabbath. Moses asks for material donations for the building of the Mishkan (Tabernacle), and the people donate. A group of artisans designated by God begin building the Mishkan and its vessels. Pekudei (Accountings Of) is the final Torah reading in the Book of Exodus. It describes the making of priestly garments worn in the Mishkan (Tabernacle) and the completion of its construction. At God’s command, Moses erects the Mishkan and puts its vessels in place, and God’s presence fills the Mishkan.
