D'var Torah
Coordinator: Carol Goldstein
Here is the DT Schedule from January through June. Please make a note of when you are giving the DT and put it on your calendar. If you find that cannot give the dt on the date that you are scheduled, please try to make a switch. If you are stuck, let me know. Thank you in advance for volunteering.
If anyone was left off the rotation and would like to give a DT, please send me an e-mail at carolgoldstein@earthlink.net and I will call upon you when an opening becomes available.
Jan. 14 -- Rivka Widerman
Jan 28 -- Phil Gold
Feb 11 -- Gila, in honor of Ed Lipton's 1st yahrzeit
Feb 25 -- Ruth Kaufman
A reminder of "the rules":
1) An asterisk appears next to the name of anyone who
requested a particular date. If you requested a particular
date and then find yourself unable to bring kiddush, try
to switch with someone whose name is NOT followed by an
asterisk. (Since presumably such a person will not want
to switch dates.)
2) Anyone (asterisk or not) who discovers he/she can't
bring kiddush on the assigned date is responsible for
(a) finding a substitute, and
(b) notifying me of the change, so I can keep track.
Ideally any changes and notifications should be completed
and sent to me by Thursday of the week you're changing.
3) If you're assigned to bring kiddush on a day when a
potluck lunch is scheduled, no need to include any "real
food" with the kiddush. Light stuff is just fine. However, please note that at this point all potluck lunches listed above are tentative--so be sure you check closer to the date. Also, it's possible potluck lunches could be scheduled at other times, so again, please check.
4) There is nothing stopping you from finding a sub "outside
the group." Spread the joy!
5) I make no promises about reminding anyone when it's
his/her turn to bring kiddush. So please mark your calendars!
6) Please note date for potluck Kiddush. (There is one on this rotation: Shabbat HaGadol (March 27). It’s also possible shul-wide or joint-minyan potluck Kiddushes will end up being scheduled on other dates. Watch the e-mail list.
You'll no doubt note that not everyone in the chevra is
on the rotation. But those of you that I didn't assign this
time are still WELCOME to participate! You can split a kiddush
with someone, take it over, whatever!
