A light COVID safe kiddush with pastries from Beldottis and various salads and proteins from Soosh will be served following all minyanim outdoors behind the chapel. There will be four minyanim Shabbat morning at 7 AM, 8 AM, two 9 AM minyanim. Contact Kiim (kmahoney@cas-stamford.org) to sponsor a kiddush. We thank Kate and Peretz Cik for hosting a Meet and Greet for newcomers to the area. If you would like more info, please contact Kate at kate.frommer@gmail.com.

Tot Shabbat: 11-11:30 in chapel, Mini minyan: 11-11:30 in Simcha room, Junior Cong 11-12 in lobby and BMC 10-11 outside the chapel. This weekend, we look forward to our Pirkei Avot studying. Marisa Kurtz will lead a class for women at 4 PM at the home of Dena Block, 37 Boxwood Drive, and Rabbi Kurtz will lead a class in shul on Shabbat afternoon between mincha and maariv. Join Rabbi Yossi Kamman for a pre Shabbat mincha class on the Code of Jewish Law.

- THREE-PART SERIES ON THE CONVERSO AND LATINO CONNECTION TO ISRAEL Begins on Sunday, April 25th at 1:00 PM. The perfect programming for older religious school students and adults alike, this compelling story of the Sephardic experience begins hundreds of years ago with the Jews of the Iberian Peninsula. This was a profound period of persecution, pogroms, and forced conversions (conversos). However, it was also a time of hope and survival with many of the converso community seeking to hold on to their Jewish traditions in secret, thus creating the Crypto-Jewish phenomenon wherein many descendants of the conversos are making their way back to their Jewish roots, and some are returning to the land of Israel after more than 500 years in hiding.The registration link is: https://www.jnf.org/converso
