Monday, Dec 24th 7:30a to 12:00p
Project Ezra is a tradition shared between Temple Shir Tikvah and Temple Isaiah in Lexington, where members of both congregations prepare and deliver Christmas meals to elderly residents and families in Arlington, Bedford, and Lexington. We need your help to make this happen. Here is how you can contribute to the effort: • Prepare food items in your home and bring them to Temple Isaiah in Lexington on Monday, December 24; • Decorate delivery bags and create cards with beautiful pictures and notes (a great family activity); • Carve the turkey breasts; • Pack the food into serving size containers; or • Make deliveries. For more information and to volunteer, go to https://tinyurl.com/ProjectEzra2018. If you have any questions, please email projectezra@templeisaiah.net -

Spirit Links Dr. Michelle Bograd, Cantor Beth Levin, Rabbi Rim Meirowitz. Long-time TST members will remember a tremendously popular program called Spirit Links, revived last year and continuing this spring. Using songs, silence, intimate text study, and discussion, spiritual concerns are linked to everyday aspects of life. Spirit Links classes have dealt with the nature of holiness, the complexities of money, the concept of “enoughness,” and, most recently, the many aspects of change. -
