It is all You

CPT Jewlicious Learners
CPT Jewlicious students celebrated Tu B’Shevat in class Feb. 10th. Long before there was Earth Day, there was Tu B’Shevat, the holiday when Jewish people think about the earth and things that grow here.
We read a story about a man named Honi who met a man digging at the side of a road, planting a Carob tree for his children, just like his parents planted for him. The story explained that carob trees take seventy years to bear fruit. This story tells us that we must consider our children and grandchildren by taking care of the earth now for their future.
Rabbi Mintz led us in a Tu B’Shevat Seder where we tasted food representing the Seven Species and the calendar seasons….Autumn, Winter, Spring and Summer. Each child took home an avocado pit to grow, first in water, then in soil.
Morah Bobbi led the children reading a rebus story about the holiday. We had a discussion about living with trees and their importance, along with animals and other plants in our eco-system. A puzzle was passed out to take home about the Teva (Nature) Triplets and showed children cleaning up parks, caring for animals,planting and giving water to living things. Morah Bobbi instructed the children how to make “Dirt Pudding” to eat with chocolate or vanilla pudding, cookie crumbs, gummy worms and pretzel sticks.
Before the children studied with Morah Iris and Cantor Marla, we planted wildflower seeds.

Shabbat Inspiration – Choosing Living Judaism
This week as our online prayer group collected our thoughts, one of the undertones was the growing fear that the American Jewish community is under attack, that the times are changing, and that we need to take action to defend ourselves. Many of us are asking “Is this...
Yom Kippur Morning – by Reb Jamie Hyams
I have been blessed with my first 0ne-on-one bat mitzvah student, a lovely 11 year-old girl. It has been a long time since I was 11, and I have no daughters so hanging out with an 11 year-old is a new experience for me. Clara and her parents are Argentinian and she spent 4 years in Hong Kong, and then Ohio, and now in our community, so her perspective is fresh, enriching and causes me to think.
