PARDES LEVAVOT
Of Note
In February we
will have our All Ages Shabbat Service on the second Saturday of the
month, February 14, and not the first Saturday as is our custom. Rabbis
Victor and Nadya will be in New Mexico leading the ALEPH Winter Retreat
February 2-8. Please note this change, and we look forward to seeing
you at services!

Getting
Involved
JCC Purim
Carnival
The annual JCC
Purim Carnival is fast approaching. If you would like to volunteer to
help, please contact info@pardeslevavot.org.
We need help with: the photo booth (helping the kids take pictures),
face painting or hair spray painting. We also have a form
to pre-order game tickets, purchase early and save money!
Additionally, we
are looking for outgoing, energetic, goofy people who want to help tell
the story of Purim at our carnival. These volunteers will act as wandering
minstrels
– each taking a character from the Purim story and telling it from
his/her point of view to the children at the carnival. Those who
volunteer will have the opportunity to help create the script,
determine what part you want to play, and choose what shift you want
for the carnival (first come/ first serve). To help with this GREAT
mitzvah (and have a fun time at the carnival), or to get more
information, please contact Sarah Pew at 303-437-9268 or by email at sarah@sarahsparties.com. This is
open to anyone 16 years old or older. There is limited space, so please
contact Sarah today.

Shepherd of the Hills Bulletin
Community
Infant
Program (CIP) – Bring baby items to help
struggling parents and single mothers. There is an ongoing need for
disposable diapers for young families with children. You can
bring them
to the church. Thank you!

Moishe and Shmuel had not seen each other in many years. Now they had a
long talk trying to fill in the gap of those years by telling about
their lives. Finally, Moishe invited Shmuel to visit him in his new
apartment.
"I got a wife and three kids and I'd love to have you visit us."
"Great. Where do you live?"
"Here's the address. And there's plenty of parking behind the
apartment. Park and come around to the front door, kick it open with
your foot, go to the elevator and press the button with your left
elbow, then enter!
"When you reach the sixth floor, go down the hall until you see my name
on the door. Then press the doorbell with your right elbow and I'll let
you in."
"Good. But tell me... what is all this business of kicking the front
door open, then pressing buttons with my right and left elbow?"
"You're coming empty-handed?"
