Brief Message from Rabbi Gartenberg

January will be an active month. The major event of the month is the Bierman Scholar in Residence which features the brilliant and illuminating teaching of Rabbi Chaim Seidler Feller, the Director of the Hillel Foundation at UCLA. Rabbi Seidler Feller will be sharing his erudition and penetrating observations about contemporary Jewish life at several points over the dates of Thursday, January 19th through the 22nd. Chaim is a brilliant student of classic Jewish texts and Hasidic and Kabbalistic literature. He will be focusing his teaching on contemporary Jewish spirituality and the Sabbath. Please consult our calendar for a listing of the events and topics. In some cases rsvps will be necessary such as the Friday night dinner. The Bierman Scholar in residence program is a joint event of Panim Hadashot, Congregation Beth Shalom, and the Hillel Foundation.
