Happy New Year! The Mother Lode Jewish Community will be starting off 2017 with a “Havdalah and Movie Night” on the evening of, Saturday, January 14th at 5:30 p.m. at a member’s home in Copperopolis. This will be a potluck gathering that gives those participating an opportunity to think about Jewish life and connect with others in the mother lode. Summer Greenwald-Gonella, the daughter of Rabbi Andra Greenwald and a fifth year Cantorial student at the Jewish Theological Seminary in NYC will be conducting the service. Following the service and potluck dinner, we will enjoy a showing of The Mad Adventures of Rabbi Jacob, a wild French-Italian comedy made in 1973 described as “one of the funniest, bust-a-gut laughing, most hysterical films ever made”!
Nonmembers are welcome to participate. For more information about the MLJC or our future events, go to MotherLodeJewishCommunity.org or contact the MLJC at 209-533-1650. Directions will be sent to you as confirmation.
