Join Rav Steven for a year-long book club once a month on a Tuesday evening between 8:00pm-9:00pm, exploring issues central to our Bayit’s mission: Medinat Yisrael (Jewish Nationhood and Israeli-Palestinian relationships), Am Yisrael (Jewish Identity and Vlaues), and Kol Yoshvei Teivel (Justice and Human Rights).

Participants have the option to join us for dinner prior to the discussion. Those who wish to share dinner at 7:30pm please call Kai Fan at 347-275-8056 by the day of the program at 5pm to place an order. Use promo code "HIR BOOK CLUB" to receive a 10% discount on your order. Kai Fan will deliver directly to the shul.
