Shabbat at Rabbi Leila's

Yesterday we hosted Shabbat services at the house. It was really fun - 16 congregants came over to the rabbi's house, and we did a regular Jewish service with plenty of singing. In place of a traditional Torah reading, we took a "tour" of the house, learning about the significance of various Jewish ritual objects. And then onto the potluck (it's not just Methodists who eat whenever more than two of them are in a room)!

presbyterians do it too! [eat when gathered] and for some reason teh american presbyterians eat like the world is going to end or we're running out of food. i made dinner at church one night. made enough food for like 100 people, maybe 40 came and i barely had enough leftovers for lunch the next day.
