May Your New Year be as Sweet as Apples and Honey!
Aiming Higher for Rosh Hashanah
Most of us just dip our apples in honey for the Jewish New Year. At the Techion in Israel, they are aiming higher! Watch them shoot an apple with a crossbow through a balloon filled with honey!
Why? Apparently because they can.

This gallery contains 37 photos.
As part of a conservation project for the camping merit badge, Aitz Chaim congregant Max Weissman and his father spent some time at our historic Eaton Road cemetery this weekend.

Scout Shabbat marked this weekend
At services this coming Friday night (7:30 p.m. at the Bethel, 1009 18th Ave SW), we will mark the occasion of Scout Shabbat. Any Scout or Scouter attending in uniform will be able to wear the Scout Shabbat patch on their uniform. Patches will be available at services.
The 12th point of the Scout Law confirms that a Scout is Reverent. Part of the way that Scouts show their Reverence is to annually attend a Scout Sunday or Scout Shabbat observance.
The Scout Shabbat program is organized by the National Jewish Committee on Scouting. Aitz Chaim congregant Diane Sherick is our local Montana chapter chair of the National Jewish Committee on Scouting. More information can be found at jewishscouting.org.
As Joy noted last week, Student Rabbi Miriam Farber will be here in a few short days; it has been too long since we have gathered for services.
- Kabbalat Shabbat services will be held at the Bethel on Friday, April 19 at 7:30 pm.
- Torah Study will be held at the Bethel at 10am on Saturday, April 20.
- Our NFTY (National Federation of Temple Youth) will also be meeting on Saturday afternoon. Contact Rabbi Miriam if you need more information about this meeting.
- We will gather for an adult discussion at the Bethel on Saturday evening, 5:30 pm. This will also be a vegetarian/milchig potluck meal. Please bring a dish to share!
We look forward to seeing you at our services!
A Ziessen Pesach to all!
We had a lovely Pesach Seder last night; food and fellowship made for a great evening.
We wish a bittersweet farewell to Adam Koslen as he moves to a bigger media market, Sioux Falls gain is our loss. Welcome to the Bergs and the Wilkins; we look forward to getting to know you better.
Todah Robah to Sandy Thares and the O’Haire Inn for creating such a wonderful meal and to Laura Weiss for all of the behind-the-scenes work and organization to make the evening possible.
Mark your calendars for the second night of Passover in 5774, downstairs at the O’Haire!
