Beit Sefer Café A Fresh Approach to Adult Learning!
A Beit Sefer is a school. A Beit Café s a coffee house. Beit Sefer Café s the best of both! For three Monday evenings in the fall, and three Sunday mornings in the spring, students can take two stimulating classes each week: a single shot (free standing one session offering---a different one each week!) and a triple shot (one class lasting all three sessions). In between classes, everyone will meet at the Beit Café or really good coffee and pastries ( stimulation of a differnet kind!)

Moshe's Tent & Aaron's Sanctuary A Pre-Passover Event for Men Ages 10-120!
Join us for a bite of Middle Eastern food and a bagel nosh as we explore different ways that decisions and choices are made. Both Moses and Aaron were forced to make tough decisions, and sometimes the results were not great. Come and share with other men as we look at the decision-making process, from school challenges to life lessons. Do men make decisions the same way women make them? What kinds of choices are the most difficult to make?
