Friends,

Kol haKfar -- the downton egalitarian minyan -- meets this Friday night May 15th at Jonathan Schecter and Malorie Ferrick's lovely LES apartment for davening and a kiddush. We'll daven at 7pm. Please bring tasty kosher items to share!

Meals every month: We are now having dinners after davening on the first Friday of every month.

We're asking people to bring easy-to-purchase side dishes & beverages, and we'll work with the host to provide a main course. Just pick up a bottle of wine, bag salad or packaged food. We'll do the rest. (Want to help? Email Amanda at aschneider@fulbrightweb.org)

Learn to Lead: We're offering one-on-one courses to teach people how to lead Kabbalat Shabbat and Ma'ariv.

Have a great voice and can stay in key, rusty with your Hebrew, or can't remember the tunes? We'll get you up to speed in a private setting, and then join you in leading your inaugural davening session. To schedule a session, please email benjamin.pollack@gmail.com or jsschecter@gmail. com

Host the minyan: Ben Folkinshteyn is scheduling the minyan hosts going forwards. Please contact him at kolhakfar.hosting@gmail.com to welcome us into your home. We gather on the first and third Friday of every month.
