We look forward to seeing the kids tonight for Double Chai. Just to change things up we will have Chinese Food Dinner, always popular with the students.
We also want to especially invite Double Chai Families to our Shorashim Shabbat service this Saturday, February 1 at 10:00 a.m. with lunch to follow. 7th graders who have become Bar/Bat Mitzvah or who are preparing to become Bar/Bat Mitzvah are encouraged to attend and lead. Please email either of us if you will attend and your student can help lead.
L'Shalom,
Rabbi Micah and Rabbi Karen

6th Grade Book Drive
As part of the B'nai TELEM (Boston area service-learning program), the 6th graders learned about the value of literacy and mitzvah of helping children read. They were surprised to learn that, "Two-thirds of American classrooms have fewer than 50 children's books and almost 60% of childcare centers buy fewer than one book per child per year" (JCRC Literacy Coalition Manual). In this spirit, the 6th grade class is holding a book drive through the month of January. Please donate new or gently used children's books for a general audience. Books will be donated to the Cradles to Crayons organization. They are highly in need of books for ages 8-12. Baby board books are also welcome. We all have books sitting on our shelves at home - let another child love them!
