SUMMARY:An Afternoon of Learning & Volunteering: Family-to-Family Volunteer Project
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Sunday afternoon for a volunteer project. This year\, we will partner with Interfaith Ministries of Greater Houston to support their clients through a variety of projects.

In addition\, the Interfaith Ministries leadership team will join us to discuss why these projects are so vital to their mission. Lunch will be available to purchase for $5. \nDonations for the two projects may be dropped off in the rotunda at Emanu El in the bin marked “December 3 Volunteer Day” \nRegister online and join us!

SUMMARY:New Series- Sex\, Intimacy\, and Relationships: Toward a Postmodern Jewish Sexual Ethic
DESCRIPTION:We’re thrilled to announce the launch of a new monthly lunch-and-learn opportunity with Rabbi Silk. This eight-session class will meet on the first Wednesday of the month\, beginning in November. \nSexuality and intimacy are central to our identities and experiences as human beings\, yet we have few opportunities to speak about them in a frank\, open\, and explicitly Jewish way. Using the IYUN program from Hillel’s Jewish Learning Fellowship\, we will read — broadly and generously — traditional Jewish texts on intimacy\, gender\, sexuality\, and other related topics. \nBring your lunch\, we will provide dessert\, beverages\, and nourishment for your mind and soul. \nPre-registration is required. Please contact Shira Moses in Rabbi Silk’s office at shiram@emanuelhouston.org or 713.529.5771\, ext. 212. The cost to attend is $18\, and space is limited.

SUMMARY:YP Event- Lies I Heard in Religious School: Jewish Holiday Stories for Grown-Ups
DESCRIPTION:Little kids hear all sorts of fanciful stories about the Jewish holidays: The Maccabees had oil that lasted for eight days. Moses raised his hand and the seas parted. Esther won a beauty contest. But the real stories of these holidays are way more complex and interesting (and sometimes even gory) than you probably ever knew… \nJoin Rabbi Fixler as we celebrate Chanukah with drinks and a latke-tasting menu of modern twists on the traditional potato pancake. We’ll enjoy delicious food and delectable conversation as we peer past the PG holiday stories you’ve heard and explore the R-rated versions you never knew.
