Congregation Sholom
Congregation Sholom will hold services via Zoom with Rabbi Eric Dangott on Friday, Jan. 13, at 6:30 p.m. Rabbi Mike Mymon will lead the hybrid service on Saturday, Jan. 14 at 10 a.m. in Clubhouse 3, Room 9, and via Zoom.
Saturday’s Torah portion will be Shemot. Shemot (Names) is the first Torah reading in the Book of Exodus. It opens describing the enslavement of the Israelites in Egypt. Moses is born, placed in a basket on the Nile, and adopted into Pharaoh’s household. He later encounters God at a burning bush and begins his mission of demanding that Pharaoh let the Israelites go.
