SPECIAL NOTE:
Dear Hearts:
This year, the ALEPH Kallah returns to our region - it will be held
July 2-8 in Albuquerque, NM. This is the international gathering which
takes place every other year in a different part of the U.S. It
attracts over 800 renewelers, including 100+ children. There's
something for everyone. Incredible class offerings (including one being
taught by Reb Victor & Reb Nadya), deep davenen, fun evening
programs, and a most amazing Kids Kallah!
There are brochures at shul, or you can see it on the web at www.aleph.org/kallah.html.
You can also view
the ALEPH Kallah FAQ.
Special discounts are offered for first-timers and for a Minyan (that's
10 or more people registering together from one congregation).
Lets bring our Pardes spirit to Kallah, and then bring back the Kallah
inspiration to our community!
Talk to our rabbis about their Kallah experience. Its what brought them
into Jewish renewal in the first place!

One of the most influential rabbis of the 20th century, Abraham Joshua
Heschel may be best known for marching with Martin Luther King - the
subject of Menorah's January program, which left many who attended
longing to learn more. Indeed, there's much more to Heschel than social
activism. Come learn more about this great scholar, theologian, writer
and teacher from one of his students, Rabbi Victor Gross. Rabbi Victor
Gross was a student of Professor Heschel in the late 60's and had a
personal relationship with him and his family and paid a partial debt
to his influence by writing his Ph.D. on him.
