Religious School Sukkot Dinner Celebration, Oct. 16 Enjoy a barbecue chicken dinner (w/veggie options), music, games and schmoozing under the Sukkah. Cost: $10 for adults/$5 for children under 13. Online registration available soon. 2019 Homelessness Series: Open Sukkah, Oct. 17 5:30–7:30 pm Southside Faith Communities Interfaith Program, Sukkah Together, the congregations of Southside are making homelessness their theme this year over three events. Join us as we get to know each other better and learn about the work Five Points is doing in response to the increasingly urgent issue of homelessness. This program opens the synagogue's sukkah to the entire community during the festival Sukkot. It focuses on Jewish teachings about hospitality and homelessness, drawing on the model of the Sukkah, a temporary booth set up outdoors that serves as a space for hosting neighbors and encourages us to offer hospitality to those without a home. We will explore the differences between hospitality and friendship that enable better neighborliness. Learn more about the other events in the series online at www.templebeth-el.net or check out the Facebook events.
