THE SHALOM SQUAD
“… a midrash imagines that Abraham interrupted his
prayers to welcome strangers to his tent. From this, the Talmud deduces the
saying, ‘Hachnasat Orchim,’ the welcoming of guests, is more important than
receiving the Shechinah, the Divine Presence.”
“There is ample instruction in our tradition to
encourage hospitality and sincere greeting. Some suggest that this is the
way to open the door to a spiritual community, filled with meaningful
relationships.”

The SSTT-E "Shalom Squad" hosts refreshments in the Parents Lounge.
Please join us for coffee and conversation.

coffee; sitting down is optional.
This is a great way to spend part of your morning (while your children
are in their programs) AND to meet fellow congregants and share experiences.
Don't have kids attending Sunday School? Come on over; all SSTT-E
members are welcome!
