Rabbi Howard Morrison

This week, our shul has the privilege of welcoming Cantor Yakov Zingboim and his daughter, Sivan, from Israel. While the visiting Chazzan is auditioning for a full-time position at Beth Emeth, the timing of his visit is perfect.

This coming Shabbat, we will anticipate the coming of Yom Ha'Zikaron (Israel's Memorial Day) and Yom Ha'Atzmaut (Israel's Independence Day), which occur on Wednesday and Thursday May 4-5.  Our service on Shabbat morning will be filled with Israeli melodies. In addition, my sermon will be dedicated to this sacred season in the contemporary Jewish calendar.

In addition, Cantor Zingboim will lead Kabbalat Shabbat on Friday evening as well as services on Shabbat, Saturday evening, followed by a Kumzits, fun filled casual Jewish singing. 

I invite us all to become spiritually enriched and inspired by this world renowned Cantor over the coming Shabbat.

Sincerely,

Rabbi Howard Morrison
