Friday night FUN at Shabbat Services! The Fall evening was sheer joy as the children ushered in the weekend with a Pizza Pre-neg and cupcakes.
How appropriate that this Shabbat Service was led by the TSS Religious School children? As Cantor Sermonized the visit paid to Abraham by the Angels to tell him that his wife Sarah would soon give him a child and give birth to a nation, the realization that OUR future and the future of TSS was sitting in the front row.
It is so important to pass our Jewish traditions onto our children. Like the children of our ancestors, they are the next generation to carry on the Jewish faith. Bringing your kids to Shabbat Services not only fulfills a mitzvah, but also reinforces what the Angels told Abraham, that the birth of his child would bring forth the birth of a nation.
With so many distractions in our lives, and so many secular activities that are scheduled for Friday nights, Shabbat Services are often sacrificed. But making Services a priority, just once a month, does so much for building the future and creating a bonding experience for our children to their Jewish faith.
Friday night was fun, informative and created a night filled with good Jewish memories that hopefully someday our children will pass onto their own children.
