Mazal tov to Yael and Jared on the birth of their daughter, Azaria Dorit! The meal train signup can be found here.

Kiddush this week is sponsored by the community in honor of Adina Bechhofer and her 2.5 years of extraordinary service as kiddush chair!

Seudah Shelishit this week is sponsored by the shabbat fund.

If you're interested in sponsoring in the future, please contact our interim Kiddush chairs, Daniel and Ariel or Catherine (seudah shlishit).

The 17th of Tammuz approaches! The fast begins at 3:43 am and ends at 8:53pm.

Sign up to help with kiddush! Having a robust kiddush committee is key to having the wonderful kiddush each week we've become accustomed to. Please fill out this form to volunteer to help with kiddush in the future!

Support the Eruv and its repair! Our community benefits tremendously from the North Charles Eruv, which relies on the generosity of members of the local Jewish community. Everyone who uses the eruv is encouraged to become a member by donating time or money. See www.nceruv.org for more information.

Please familiarize yourself with Harvard Hillel's exits in case of emergency. In addition to the main staircase, there are exits through the door behind the men's section and through the door to the left of the elevator.

The ZA'AKAH Peer-Support Hotline is available as a resource to our community for those who feel they need to talk to someone on Shabbat. It is not a substitute for professional crisis intervention. Call, text, or WhatsApp 1-888-4-ZAAKAH (1-888-492-2524).

Learning Opportunities

Discussion of Aharon Lictenstein’s Values in Halakha: Six Case Studies (current topic), Monday evenings at 8:30pm. For more information or to request the Zoom link, please contact Mike or Yona.
