Weekly Email for February 8th

Greetings!

This month’s Rosh Chodesh gathering will be a gender-inclusive gathering to celebrate the New Month of Adar. Please e-mail handinhandarts@gmail.com to RSVP and get directions.  The event will take place at 5pm on Saturday February 13th and will be followed by an optional Kirtan in Lincoln, MA at 7:30pm, carpooling available. It will be a special event that celebrates Divine Love as well as Shivaratri. $10 donation suggested.

On Monday February 15th, Moishe/Kavod members will be coming together to learn more about the Greater Boston Interfaith Organization and envision what it would mean for us as young adult Jews to get involved. Dinner will be served! Please RSVP to anniedfox@gmail.com.

P. S. Did you become a member of the Moishe Kavod House last year and are wondering whether its time to renew? Haven’t joined yet but want to know how?  Membership is a key way for us each to claim our stake in our community and to ensure that Moishe/Kavod House reflects democracy and transparency.  For those who joined last fall/winter, the deadline for membership renewal will be March 7, 2010 – our 2nd annual membership meeting.  The meeting will be 4-6pm followed by dinner. For those who joined late in the year (for example, in preparation for the June retreat), you have already paid for half the year, so your dues for March 7 will be $25 (or $18 for low income/student).  Annual dues are $50 or $36 for low-income/student members.  To renew, write out a check to Moishe Kavod House and mail to 165 Winthrop Rd. Apt B, Brookline, MA 02445 c/o Alix Zamansky OR pay online through PayPal, link found at http://www.kavodhouse.com/resources/membership.  To join for the first time, you must also complete the membership form, found via the same address.  Thanks!
