January @ Beit Juhuro

-
Another month has passed by, and just like a great accountant keeps the books in a proper order to maintain a healthy and a flourishing enterprise, we at Beit Juhuro are planning to share with our readers and members our monthly accomplishments and aspirations for the future.

The month of January was filled with many Torah classes, great company of friends, delicious food, and a warm atmosphere.

We resumed our Juhuri classes with Ehiel Mordekhaev who worked together with us on the curriculum.

Our fundraising efforts continue to pay off thanks to many generous and caring people in our community and the hard work of our team.

New people joined our community and have enjoyed the weekly classes on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Our core team is as solid and dedicated as ever before to the mission of Beit Juhuro.

We kept enhancing our programs, tried new things and planned many events for the month of February.

Every day I was telling myself today is the last day (Power Up Thursdays)

"Rabbi! So tell me, s hould I learn more Torah??? Isn’t it better to know less, because then I would have to keep less?  Should I learn more Torah and as a result would be forced to change my life even though I am not ready? " - asked one of the students. Gorsky guys are not afraid to ask the tough questions. No wonder they call it Power Up Thursdays, there is always so much energy, questioning, discussing.  Well, Rabbi Nahum is a perfect fit for our guys. He does not shy away from  answers , he does not switch the topic. "Put it in your pocket, and when are you ready, take it out. Learn the information, consider it, debate it, digest it. Besides the fact, what makes you think you are not responsible to observe the commandments just because you don't know all the details?!  if you had the opportunity to find out and you didn’t, y ou are responsible for not knowing and for not observing." Rabbi Nahum continued to stress the importance of sm

Тишреевские праздники в Культурно-Образовательном центре Бейт Джууро  Вот и подошли к концу осенние праздники, наполненные эмоциями и духовностью.  Начались суетливые будни, настало время работать и добиваться результатов. Но те праздничные радостные мгновения ещё долго останутся в нашей памяти...   В этом году в Рош Ашана двери «Бейт Джууро» и двери раввинов и членов центра  были открыты  для всех желающих. Мы наполняли наши души духовной пищей-молитвой,а тела-вкусной едой. Как принято, в новый год,мы макали яблоки в мёд,желая друг другу сладкого года,смотрели на голову барана в память об Акидат Ицхак, читали особые сгулот, чтобы был благословенный год и было очень приятно видеть сияющие лица всех присутствующих. Молитву на красивый восточный мотив в этот святой день вёл Рав Яков Фархи, выходец города Алеппо. Всем раздали  календари, с радостью подаренные синагогой Горских евреев и расписание на ближайшие праздники. Очень пригодились молитвенники с русским переводом и транс

10 years into my marriage, I felt so much excitement ...

“10 years into my marriage, I felt so much excitement by simply touching my wife after she returned from the Mikveh, even more excitement than kissing and everything else during our early years of marriage” noted Allan.   Allan and Carol Haber, have been teaching about Jewish perspective on intimacy for over 30 years. The Torah laws that kept Jewish husbands and wives together throughout the centuries are often called “Taharat Hamishpaha,” the laws of family purity. Indeed, those who observe these laws often testify that the rituals of Taharat Hamishpaha keep their marriage fresh and thrilling. Mr. Haber recalls growing up: many Americans watched “I love Lucy”. The late 50’s show “I Love Lucy” was the most watched show in the United States at the time and it won five Emmy Awards . The main actors of the show Lucy and Desi, were actually husband and wife in real life too, not just in the TV show. Many American families looked up to them as an example of a perfect American couple and
