Torah Study - Deuteronomy 2:31-3:22
You can join this service virtually by clicking on the blue title above. One theory is that Deuteronomy is the book that was “found” during the reign of Josiah mid 7th century bc. It’s thought that these legends form the basis for what was written 2 or 3 hundred years later as the exiles were returning. Currently, known as the last of the five Books of Moses, Moses speaks to the Israelites as they are entering the Promised Land. As anyone who is moving forward, we must know from where we came. This particular portion of Deuteronomy recounts the wars fought, through which the Israelites have come to acquire their tribal lands. The battles won in this section were the battles that were “commanded” by God. As Moses recounts the Israelite conquests, what can this mean for us as we face our the world around us? What do you consider a “holy war,” if anything? How are you informed by the battles you have fought in the past to face your current battles?
Our Mi Shebeirach/healing prayer list can be viewed by clicking on the blue text. If you would like to add someone to the list, or if there’s a name on the list that we can remove, please let Joann or Cantor George know. Please help us keep it up to date!
Cantor George's Recon Convention Workshops
Here are videos of two workshops that Cantor George led for the March Reconstructionist Convention: the first is a session for sharing new liturgical music that he co-led with Solomon Hoffman (4th year Rabbinical Student at RRC) and includes quite a few of Cantor George's own compositions.
In the second, Cantor George shares some tricks and tips from his experiences at incorporating music into virtual services at Kol HaLev.

Shabbat Music
Kol HaLev, with the guidance of Cantor George has been introducing new, exciting, stimulating, joyful music to our services. Much of this music is for Friday nights and is played by Kol HaLev Unplugged on the fourth Friday night of the month. Kol HaLev Unplugged has made recordings so that the community can learn the melodies more easily. This link takes you to the recordings and the lyrics for the songs. You can also check out our latest You Tube video of Kol HaLev Unplugged singing Cantor George's Shalom Rav! Come to Shabbat and enjoy guitar, drum, voices and song!
