Event Description

Several weeks ago, a few members of our internet congregation decided to join the local congregation of Roots of Faith for our weekly Sabbath Service on February 26th. As soon as this became known, others began to consider joining us for the same Sabbath service. It now looks like things may be shaping up for a fairly large assembly of people. People are driving in and flying in! It should be no surprise that the Torah reading for Saturday, February 26th is Va-Yakhel. The Hebrew means "and he assembled"! What better Sabbath to assemble than this one?

We are still talking about plans, but if you are interested in joining us for this Sabbath, please let us know. John and Carin Carlson will be back in the states and plan on joining us. We will likely have dinner together on Saturday night and perhaps meet on Sunday for fellowship and planning sessions. I hear that we will have singing, dancing and much more!

The town of Saint Francisville is small and currently has only one hotel (The Magnuson - 225.635.3821). Another hotel is being built but is not yet open for business. There are also Bed and Breakfast places that you might stay at.

Have you been thinking of visiting Temple Sinai? Can you make it for February 26th? I hope many of you can!

Shabbat shalom!

Comment by James Daniel Tabor on February 21, 2011 at 9:35am: I hope to "assemble" with you, but remotely, from Jerusalem and the Land of Israel. I will be flying there, arriving on Shabbat.

Comment by Jeremy Long on February 21, 2011 at 8:04am: I also heard talk of something the weekend of march 18th. Anyone know of this?

Comment by Kim on February 20, 2011 at 12:09am: I will be attending online. I sure wish I could be there in person. Every needs to give John and Carin a hug for me.
