Shabbat Dinner Tomorrow/Maimonides Program

Shalom,

A reminder about our first Shabbat dinner tomorrow evening, our
announcement about this semester's Maimonides program and 2 job
postings.



"NEW YEAR" SHABBAT DINNER THIS FRIDAY, JANUARY 19 - 6 PM
CARDINAL'S SUITE, FIRST FLOOR-MUNDELEIN CENTER

It's not the Jewish New Year or the secular New Year - but it is the "new
year" of school.  The Shabbat dinner will be very traditional - matzo ball
soup, honey chicken, kugel, challah ...  After dinner, some students will
be walking to 8 PM services at Emanuel Congregation, 5959 Sheridan Road.

There is no charge, but we would like to know how many people will be
joining us.  So, if you can come - email Patti Ray - pray@luc.edu or sign
up in Hillel.
