December Vestry Meeting Moved: DECEMBER 4!!!

December 4 is the new day; it's a Tuesday and it's just over a week earlier than the Vestry meeting would usually be held. THIS is because Dr. Suuqiina will be teaching at St. Jude's on Wednesday, December 12, at 7:30 p.m. As the Vestry has yet to figure out how to be in two places simultaneously, moving the meeting was necessary - because attending Suuqiina's teaching is essential!

The High Holy Days

In Jewish life, the beginning of the year is Rosh Hashanah and, since the Jewish calendar is lunar rather than the rigid Gregorian calendar that we commonly use, it means the date floats... this year, Rosh Hashanah will begin at sunset on Sunday, September 16, and continue through sunset on September 17th.

St Jude's is once again delighted and honored to welcome our friends, the congregation of Temple Beth Emet to celebrate the High Holy Days at our church. The Sunday evening Rosh Hashanah service will begin at 8:00 p.m. and the daytime service will begin Monday morning at 10:00 a.m. with the children's service beginning at 10:30 a.m. Congregants are reminded to bring their shofars... which means David Van Ausdal will likely bring his didgeridoo!

Chabad.org has a pretty extensive website which explains Rosh Hashanah in great detail, for those of you interested in what our friends at Temple Beth Emet believe, commemorate, and celebrate at the High Holy Days. Ten days later they will be at St Jude's for Yom Kippur; more on that most significant holiday in the next blog post; Temple Beth Emet's schedule can be found here.

St Jude's parishioner's are invited to come early and bring a flashlight to help direct parking (we will be using additional parking lots once our own lot fills up) and accompany our friends from the lot to the sanctuary.

Oh, and the Vestry meets Wednesday evening at 7:30 p.m.

Lenten Soup Suppers & Teaching Continue, Vestry on Tuesday!

The Vestry meeting will be Tuesday night at 7:30 p.m. so as not to conflict with the Soup Supper and Teaching on Wednesday night at 7:00 p.m.

We are listening to Jonathan Cahn's teaching on "The Harbinger" and it's starting to heat up! Do come join us--
