B'nai Israel Congregation

Join us at Harry Grove Stadium to watch the Frederick Keys take on the Williamsport Crosscutters. We'll pay for everyone's ticket and the kids also will get a baseball and a chance to go onto the field with the players for the national anthem. Everyone also will get a voucher for pretzel or hummus cup. After the game, there are fireworks. Game time is 6 pm but you need to get there earlier to go onto the field. It's Sunday Funday so you also get a chance to have a catch on the field once the gates open. If you're interested, please RSVP to Stewart Bushman at stoobush@gmail.com ASAP!

Our sages list 10 trials that Abraham withstood including the expulsion of Hagar and Ishmael from his home and the Binding/Sacrifice of Isaac.

For Men’s Club members and prospective members. Includes one complimentary drink, and food provided by the Men’s Club Food Committee.

12:00 PM – BYO Dairy Lunch 12:30 PM – Program The nearly two-year interruption in theater production caused by the pandemic has brought about a great reckoning in the American theater.
