The Dr. Saul Futterman
Shabbat Torah Study Program

LEARN & LUNCH

     Rather than deliver a formal D'var Torah, Rabbi Thaler will conduct an extended study session during Shabbat Services exploring topics in the weekly portion.


     On those special Shabbatot, the congregation is invited for Kiddush and lunch.


     This monthly program is again being sponsored by Ruth Futterman. It is a most fitting memorial to Dr. Futterman, who loved and supported Jewish learning. Through this program, Dr. Futterman remains a continuing influence and presence in our midst.
