Each year, Hevreh provides a full Christmas dinner to 18 lucky winners. We gather at Hevreh, fill the bags with fixings and then Hevreh “elves” deliver them to families. After Thanksgiving, please consider donating frozen turkeys, canned vegetables, canned yams or potatoes, gravy, stuffing, cranberry sauce or fresh pies. Monetary donations are also accepted.

QUIGONG CLASS WITH WILL BOYCE, M.ED
Qigong is an ancient Chinese set of practices designed to bring enhanced feelings of serenity, well being and energy. Qigong involves the use of gentle healing movements, breath practices, self massage and relaxation. It is easy to learn and supports health maintenance, endurance and longevity. And best of all, these are strategies that a person can implement themselves to support their own healing process. Will has been teaching Qigong for the last 20 years. He ran the largest Qigong program in the USA for the inpatient treatment of addictions recovery.

PEER-LED MUSSAR GROUP
DECEMBER 2, 16 | JANUARY 6, 20 | FEBRUARY 3, 17
Broadly speaking Mussar is the study, discussion, and practice of various character (or “soul”) traits from a Jewish perspective. While there are over one hundred of such traits, typical ones include Humility, Gratitude, Compassion, Patience, and Silence.
Hevreh is starting a lay-led Mussar group, which will meet every other week on Mondays. We will usually plan on meeting from 11:00-12:30, but check the weekly email, This Week at Hevreh, for confirmation of dates and times. This group is open to all, so please come and join us. A Zoom (teleconferencing) option will be available for those who cannot attend in person if you let us know in advance. Our first meeting in November is currently scheduled for Monday, November 4 at 1:00 (note this one time change in time). Please feel free to join us.
