11:00 am
End: 1:00 pm
At Union Baptist Church, 12 Midland Avenue (near Portland Place) in Montclair. If you loved the singing at the Martin Luther King Day service in January, you won't want to miss this opportunity. It was Union Baptist's choir director that led the choir in January, and the singing on March 30 is sure to be as stirring and energizing. So that we can let Reverend Parrish know how many people to expect, please RSVP to the BK office. On Saturday 4/26 Reverend Parrish will lead the dvar Torah at Bnai Keshet.
1:00 pm
At West End Synagogue in Manhattan. Kehillah Kedoshah is a program to support leaders in working on outreach and growth. Through a generous grant from UJA Federation, the NY-NJ Region will be consulting with and providing training sessions for all area Reconstructionist synagogues. To register for the Kickoff or to learn more about Kehillah Kedoshah contact Hannah Greenstein, JRF NY-NJ Outreach Coordinator.

BK is a community sponsor of this film, and Lior has a very special BK connection. His father, Rabbi Mordechai Liebling, was our Religious School principal many years ago, and later served for 14 years as Executive Director of the JRF. "Winner of Audience Awards for Best Documentary, Praying with Lior asks whether someone with Down syndrome can be a 'spiritual genius.' Many consider Lior close to God–though he’s also a burden, a best friend, an inspiration and an embarrassment, depending on who is asked and when. As this moving and entertaining documentary moves to its climax, Lior must pass through the gateway to manhood--his Bar Mitzvah."
