Interesting look at Jewish life in Tunisia after the Arab spring started there. And they even have a Kosher restaurant.
Jewish life in Tunisia-more Kosher restaurants than Jax!

Just found a new site while visiting modernjewishmom.com. It’s great for those of you planning a simcha and there are a variety of everyday applications too!
More from last week’s Torah Fund dinner
As this latest batch of photos arrives, it’s a great opportunity to say thank you once again to everyone who made it happen, to consider how important Torah Fund is, and especially to thank Edith Horovitz for letting us honor her!
November Hot Topic
Many thanks to Rabbi Jesse Olitzky and our Education VP Kim Glasgal for an interesting and engaging Hot Topic about reaching out to interfaith families at the Center and within the Conservative/Masorti movement. The discussion was great and thought provoking.
Today is an exciting time to be a part of the Conservative movement as we collectively examine minhag (tradition and custom) and halakha (Jewsih law) and grow together as a movement, a sisterhood and a synagogue.
PS:Did you know that Center Sisterhood members don’t have to be Jewish?
Amazing news from Israel!
This news is so amazing!! Cancer vaccine developed in Israel!!
More photos from Torah Fund Dinner
As promised, more photos from last night’s wonderful Torah Fund Dinner! We had a great time dancing to tunes from Kol Train, hearing the great news that our Torah Fund team at the Center has raised over $18,000 and beaten our goal (including $227 from the dayschool tzedakah boxes!) and hearing touching tributes to our honoree Edith Horovitz by Estelle Kritz and Kathy Osterer. Not to mention a yummy dinner by Margo’s Catering and centerpieces whose sale benefitted Torah Fund-wow, what a night!!!
