Kristallnacht commemoration at Temple Sinai of North Dade on Nov 9, 2018 6.15pm
Posted by Suzanne Summers on 10/24/2018 @ 10:48 AM
Temple Sinai is putting together a unique service commemorating the 80th anniversary of Kristallnacht and honoring the German Musical Tradition.
Instead of the traditional Friday night music, the congregation will become transformed by the 19th Century German music that was enjoyed by Jews in Western Europe and particularly in Germany prior to the Holocaust.
The service will be enhanced by the presence of a special guest speaker, holocaust survivor Julius Eisenstein, along with other survivors who will join us for service and dinner.
The service will take place on Friday, November 9, 2018 at 6:15 p.m. at Temple Sinai of North Dade, 18801 NE 22 Ave, North Miami Beach, 33180. The public is invited to attend.
A dinner, the cost of which is $18 for partners and $25 for non-partners, will follow the service. For reservations to the dinner, please RSVP to Temple Sinai no later than Wed Nov 7 using the following link https://www.tsnd.org/event/Kristallnacht

Film Screening "Goodbye Columbus"
Posted by Mark Baranek on 10/04/2018 @ 02:58 PM
Phillip Roth, one of the great Jewish writers of our generation passed away this year. Temple Beth Sholom is paying tribute to him with a film series based on some of his classic books. Our Retrospective kicks off with "Goodbye Columbus" on Tuesday October 16th at 7:00 p.m.
Neil Klugman (Richard Benjamin), a young librarian in New Jersey, has eyes for Brenda Patimkin (Ali MacGraw), a beautiful Radcliffe student. Although they are both Jewish, Brenda’s family is much wealthier and more conservative than Neil’s. As there relationship matures, their differing cultural backgrounds cause Brenda’s mother (Nan Martin) to have trepidations about the couple. As their disparate ideas about sex and birth control come to the fore, their feelings for each other are tested. Film will be screened at Temple Beth Sholom 4144 Chase Ave. Miami Beach 33140
