Pageant of Torah


Don't miss "A Pageant of Torah" in May, when we'll have a series of Torah-centric events, culminating in the dedication of the Brown Family Torah. The Brown Family Torah is an ancient scroll written in Iraq, newly encased in a magnificent Sephardic silver case which will be presented to the congregation by Larry and Lynne Brown on May 18. (See Rabbi Rosenbloom's May/June Newsletter Perspective article for the history of the Torah.)
