Shabbat Shalom! This week’s Torah Portion is D’varim, Deuteronomy 1:1–3:22. I hope you will join us for Shabbat Services this week: Friday, August 9, at 7:30 p.m.

Torah Question of the Week:

What makes you realize you need help and cannot do something on your own? Do you have to reach a level of frustration first? In this week’s Torah portion, Moses recounts his frustration with the trouble, burden and bickering of the Israelites and his instruction that each tribe choose wise, discerning and experienced men to help lead them. When you are faced with such a situation, how do you find the right people to help you?
