Shtiebel Kickoff Havdalah with Inner Circle

Havdalah, music, food, wine, and visioning for Shtiebel. Kicking off the new year. We will meet at 6pm at the Hastings on the Hudson waterfront.

Shalom Friends,

A few things about this Saturday's event.

This event is intended to be an intimate gathering to kick off Shtiebel--friends, family and friends of friends and family. I am so excited to get together with you all.


1) It looks like a 70% chance of rain-- so the rain location will be  7 Hudson Dr., Dobbs Ferry, NY, 10522. I will let everyone know on Friday whether it will be at the Hastings waterfront or in Dobbs. If you please let them know the rain location

2) The evening will include the following:

a) Music with me, Caleb Flood-Goldstick, and Lee Gross-- including a havdalah ceremony.

b) Food.

c) Salon type discussion- I will start with a five minute text study/discussion, then I will open the floor to others to share a story/teaching/question/etc. Priority will be given to those who were the first to RSVP.

3) Food will be pot-luck style. We already have one main dish, grape juice, and a salad. If you are coming, please let us know what you can bring so we can plan to supplement accordingly.

We can't wait to see you all!
