IN CELEBRATION OF JEWISH ECOLOGY AWARENESS DAY
In advance of the upcoming Tu B’shevat holiday, the Montana Jewish Project (MJP) is so excited to spread the word about Congregation Har Shalom’s (Missoula) new book study group, which will be discussing Rabbi Ellen Bernstein’s “The Splendor of Creation: A Biblical Ecology.”
Focusing on distinctly Jewish approaches to the current environmental crises, this group will meet virtually each Monday at 7pm, starting on January 23, for eight sessions of discussion-based study, facilitated by Dr. Jim Hatley (Professor of Environmental Studies at Salisbury University) and Kaleb Cohen (current M.A. student in Environmental Philosophy at the University of Montana).
We’d like to help built an opportunity for Jews across Montana TO engage in this. If you are interested in participating in this book study group, please reach out to Kaleb at kaleb.cohen@umontana.edu

PLEASE JOIN AITZ CHAIM FOR A COMMUNITY SUKKAH PARTY!
- WHAT? Aitz Chaim Community sukkot party
- WHEN? Sunday October 9th, 2022, Tishrei 14, 5783, 4:00PM
- Where? At Colleen Lemon’s house, 285 North Main St., Simms, 59477.
If anyone would like to carpool there, please let Wendy know at (406) 868-5712, or wendy@weissman.com and we can arrange a carpool. Driving time is about 30-40 minutes.
If you would like to build a sukkah or similar structure (there are talks about building a teepee) please show up about 4 PM to build your sukkah. Bring materials that you will need to build it.
Colleen and her family are building a sukkah. If you are not building a sukkah and don’t want to watch or help others build one, show up about 5 PM. At that time, we will finish decorating the sukkah, recite prayers and have a light dinner.
Please bring the following if you can, (but nothing is required to bring, just yourself):
1. Sukkah decorations. We will all be decorating the sukkah!
2. Food to share. We will have a traditional Israeli menu so bring items such as figs, dates, nuts, grapes, pomegranates, pineapple, challah (wendy will make this), pita chips, tabouleh, hummus, apples and honey and salat (which I found out is basically tabouleh without the wheat). Other food is also welcome. Or if you just want to show up and eat that is great too!
Please call or text Colleen at (412) 584-1973 with any questions you may have. The more the merrier, so please join us!!!
