News & Shmooze

 Join us for Tashlich at the Creek along with an outdoor Shofar blowing on the second day of Rosh Hashana, Sunday, Sept 20 at 6 pm!

Not only is this always a most enjoyable excursion, if you are not comfortable with indoor services, but are okay with outdoors, this is a great opportunity to fulfill the Mitzvah of hearing the Shofar on Rosh Hashana!

Meet outside of 318 Lafayette, League City (different street, but in the same subdivision as the rabbi's home).  

Services will be held indoors with recommended safety measures in place, including: spread-out seating, hand-sanitization on entry, distancing, and enhanced air-filtration.

We had a beautiful turnout for the Zoom guest speaker last night! Noted author and researcher, Doron Kornbluth, delved into the Jewish perspective on burial. Although not the most joyous of topics, our speaker did a great job of making the case. It was also nice to get together with our fellow Jews from other Chabad's on the Texas Coast.
