END-OF-MONTH SHABBAT SERVICE

SATURDAY JULY 26TH
11:15 AM AT THE OLD MEETING HOUSE, COLEGATE, NORWICH

The Shabbat service to be held on Saturday, July 26th is to be taken by Rabbi Rachel Benjamin.

Rachel Benjamin writes: We will be reading from service number three, on page 117 of Siddur Lev Chadash. The Torah portion is Mattot, Numbers 30:2-32:42, and we shall be reading Numbers 32:1-19. Our Haftarah reading will be Jeremiah 1:1-2:3. Rosh Chodesh Av (the beginning of the Hebrew month of Av) will take place the following Shabbat, so we will say the blessing for the new month at our Shabbat service.

After the service there will be a kiddush, with coffee, tea and cakes to follow. 

Yahrzeits in July

The memory of the righteous is a blessing

Yahrzeits we know about are read out at the service. It is also fitting to perform a mitzvah eg candle lighting or ark opening at that time. Mitzvot are arranged by Deborah Carpenter, but don’t wait for her to contact you. Email deborah.lang@btopenworld.com — or just come along to the service

Michele Paton maintains the Yahrzeit List. If you would like a family member or friend mentioned in shul on the anniversary of their passing, give Michele the necessasry details ie name, relationship, anniversary date, in writing. You can email Michele at michele.paton@gmail.com
