The service will be conducted by Cantor Marla Barugel and will also be available on Zoom. The guest speaker will be Bev Bender, aka “Dr. Funny Bones.”

This week’s Torah portion is Achrei Mot, from the book of Leviticus. This portion opens by describing the ritual service of Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. It then details the prohibitions of offering sacrifices outside of the Mishkin (tabernacle) and eating animal blood and ends with a list of forbidden sexual relations.

Those who want to become a member of Congregation Sholom can call Howard Bass at (714) 396-0121 for a membership packet.
