It feels like most people on earth are searching for mannah from heaven for one reason or another, but not so the wandering Jews in this week's parsha. They are dissatisfied with their “bread from heaven” and demand that Moses supply them with meat. Perhaps it's a good thing they didn't come to Shira... although we'd have converted them to marinated tofu in no time!
Please join us on Friday night at 6pm for Kabbalat Shabbat and on Shabbat morning at 9.15am for a shiur followed by Shacharit at 9.45am. Mark Baker will be giving the Drasha. This week's Kiddush is being sponsored by Pebby Wald, in honour of Max's return to our minyan in good health. Max, it's great to see that your heart can pump for Pebby like a man of thirty again!
'Arafat in Therapy': Shira member Jeremie Bracka is having a show, playing from June 4-9th. Don't miss Arafat's return to couple's therapy! Tickets here or 8290 7000.
"Wear Some, Share Some" is a campaign aiming to collect socks for homeless people for the Winter months. Helen Lewitan is collecting socks (new or old, but in good condition) in the front of the women's section in shul. Feel free to donate to keep their toes toasty.
Shabbat Shalom
