We are delighted to invite you to our Shavuot Dinner and Tikkun Leil night of learning on May 14th. The dinner will be Ottolenghi themed, and will be truly delicious! It is also convenient to be at shul in time for the speakers, rather than rushing from your dinner at home. Bookings close by Friday. For dinner bookings please click here. All are welcome (no charge) to our night of learning and cheesecake that will follow from 7.30pm with guest speakers:
Dr Michael Steinlauf, visiting American scholar in Yiddish and Jewish Culture and guest of the ACJC at Monash, will be sharing and discussing a Y.L Peretz story that he translated entitled "The Poor Boy". Feel free to read in advance here.
"Your God Is My God - conversion stories" with Evan Thornley, Sue Taylor and Dean Ogden who have chosen Judaism as their religion. Mark Baker will give an opening address.
Professor Andrew Benjamin, Chair of Philosophy and Jewish Thought at the ACJC, Monash University, will speak on 'Justice and Holiness: Notes on Tehillim 89'
It is going to be a really stimulating night of learning and we really look forward to seeing you there!
