Shabbat Shalom! This week’s Torah Portion is R’eih, Deuteronomy 11:26–16:17. I hope you will join us for Shabbat Services this week: Friday, August 30, at 7:30 p.m.

Torah Question of the Week:

What do you do when you see someone in need? Do you help them? How do you help them? In this week’s Torah portion, we are told that we must not harden our hearts or shut our hands against those in need, but must give the poor whatever is sufficient to meet their needs, because there will always be needy among us. How do you turn your heart toward those in need? How do you help others to do so?
