Torah Study
Monthly lay-led Torah Study is generally held monthly, preceeded by Shacharit service.
Interested in Torah Study resources?
Interfaith Services
BAJC has enjoyed many opportunities these past few years to participate
in Interfaith Services, including an interfaith Family of Abraham event, Yom HaShoah service
and Jewish-Muslim Services and workshops. (Read about the Irving
J. Fain Award BAJC was given for some of these collaborative efforts in 2003.)
These efforts will continue in the coming year, details to be announced.
Significant Jewish Books Club
Meeting at member homes, the club discusses a new book monthly.
For more information, contact Faith: faith@bajcvermont.org.
Tahara
The process for preparing the deceased for burial is called tahara,
or purification. As death is the end of the cycle of life, funeral
rituals reflect those of birth. Just as a newborn is washed and
dressed, the deceased is carefully wsahed and dressed by members
of chevre kadisha.
A tahara service can be requested when funeral arrangements are
made.
