SUMMARY:A Father's Faith: An Evening with Dani Miran
DESCRIPTION:Omri Miran\, 46\, was taken captive on October 7th by Hamas terrorists from Kibbutz Nahal Oz\, leaving his wife\, Lishay Miran\, 38\, and their two young daughters behind.\n\n\n\nAt 10:30 a.m.\, the window in their bathroom was kicked in and terrorists entered their house. Omri and Lishay tried to keep their daughters quiet in the safe room\, and had two knives with them to try and protect themselves. \nA few hours later\, the terrorists told Omri and the father of the another family to stand\, and they took them\, with their car keys to their cars. Minutes later\, said Lishay\, she saw them driving away. Omri was taken hostage and driven into Gaza in his own car. \nOmri was last seen alive in a cynical Hamas propaganda video released on April 24th. \n  \n\n\nSince that fateful day\, Omri’s father Dani left his home in the north of Israel behind and moved to Tel Aviv to become an ever-present at the Hostages Forum offices. There\, Dani has played a central role in volunteering and campaigning as the desperate effort to return the hostages goes on. We are honoured to be joined by Dani as he shares the story of his experiences over the past 14 months\, through trial and tribulation and yet with undying hope and optimism that he will be reunited with Omri very soon. \n  \nTimings: \n8:00pm – Welcome and introduction \n8:15pm – Keynote from Dani Miran \n9:15pm – Appeal from Magen David Adom UK \n9:20pm – Refreshments  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Women's Tefillah Group
DESCRIPTION:Over 30 years ago\, in February 1993\, the women of Stanmore held the very first Orthodox Women’s Tefillah service in the UK.   While early services were held off the shul premises\, the Women’s Tefillah Group moved into the shul in 2012.  \nA service is held once every three months in the Beit Midrash\, which has opened up many opportunities for women to lead services\, lein from a Chumash\, and read the haftorah. We also read specially adapted prayers for loved ones on a yahrzeit or for those who are unwell. We also take great joy in celebrating and blessing new babies and forthcoming brides. At each service\, one or two women give a d’var torah\, and we regularly have girls leading Anim Zemirot.  \nAll women and girls are welcome\, regardless of their knowledge or level of observance. There are opportunities for women and girls to learn to lein or take services.  Contact Jacqui Rudolph or Ruth de Kare Silver for more details  jacqui@stanmoresynagogue.org

SUMMARY:The Great Stanmore (Challah) Bake Off
DESCRIPTION:This Shabbat\, we will read the portion of Chayei Sarah which commemorates the life and legacy of our matriarch Sarah. Married to Abraham as the founding parents of the Jewish people\, Sarah represents courage\, faith and profound wisdom.  \nOur sages teach that Sarah insituted the custom of baking special loaves of bread for Shabbat\, and that miraculously the challah would remain fresh from one week to the next.  \nWe invite all parents and children to join us in a Great Big Stanmore Bake Off\, preparing and making challah together while learning about its important role throughout Jewish history. Each bracha (blessing) will be recited in the merit of a speedy recovery for those injured during the conflict in Israel. \n  \nSchedule:  \n17:00 – Introduction by Naomi Birnbaum \n17:15 – Challah bake! \n18:30 – Prayer for a speedy recovery and safe release of the hostages \n18:45 – Refreshments  \n  \nWITH APOLOGIES\, BOOKING FOR THIS EVENT IS NOW CLOSED

SUMMARY:Mifgash Chaveirim Oct 7th Event
DESCRIPTION:Succot is a time when we step out of our comfort zones\, leave the world behind and step into a mystical outdoor space called a Succah. \nWith its natural\, temporary design\, the Succah takes us back to our roots and reminds us that our experience in this world is fleeting but also filled with beauty.  \nThis year\, as part of our line up of events commemorating the atrocities of Oct 7th\, you are invited together with sixth-formers from across London to create a ‘Recipe in Memory’ of one of the victims. If travel allows it\, we will also be joined by a survivor of that awful day who will share their experience and words of inspiration and encouragement to take home with us as we leave the Succah. \nWith delicious food\, music and social\, join us for this unique event. \n  \nTues 22nd of October\, 19:00-21:00 \n  \nFor sixth-formers only.

SUMMARY:Simchat Torah Project
DESCRIPTION:A year on.  \nSo much pain\, anguish and worry. We have witnessed communities destroyed\, families torn apart and a conflict that redrew the lines forever. A day that is meant to be one of happiness and celebration\, Simchat Torah 5784\, was overshadowed by our nation’s greatest tragedy in living memory. \nBut in and among the darkness\, sparks of light still shone through. Thousands of volunteers have poured into Israel to help in whichever way they can\, funds have been raised\, vital equpiment donated. We have also seen an upsurge in prayer\, study and committment to acts of chessed (kindness).  \nOct 7th and its aftermath reminded us of the strength\, resilience and enduring hope of the Jewish people. Simchat Torah\, the celebration of the Torah’s completion\, reminds us of the fabric that binds us together\, the gift that makes us unique.  \nThis year\, as part of our range of events commemorating Oct 7th\, we are proud to launch The Simchat Torah Project: \n1) We invite participating families to sign up before the deadline of Monday the 23rd of September. \n2) Each participating family will receive a Simchat Torah Project Resource Pack \n3) This pack contains: A picture of a hostage either still in Gaza or killed on/since Oct 7th\, their Hebrew name\, and a section of the Torah (with English translation and commentary) to study together as a family/individuals. \n4) Participating families will also receive a single artistic panel featuring their section of the Torah\, which is one piece in a much larger mosaic which will be displayed in the Shul to commemorate this beautiful initiative and amazing achievement.  \n5) As the purpose of the Project is to complete the Torah in the merit and memory of the hostages in line with the anniversary of their capture\, we ask that all participating families/individuals finish studying their sections by Thursday the 24th of October\, which is the Hebrew anniversary of Oct 7th. \n6) The following day\, Simchat Torah itself\, we will come together as a community to celebrate our completion of the Torah with pride and joy. We will also ‘unveil’ the mosaic built through the efforts of participating families and individuals.  \n  \nStudy at your own pace\, in your own time\, in the comfort of your own home.  \n   \nTogether\, we will celebrate and strengthen our indentities as proud Jews in modern society. \nTogether\, we will celebrate the wisdom and heritage that makes us unique. \nTogether\, we will dance again.

SUMMARY:Page Turning and Clock Watching: Rosh Hashana Unlocked
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to our special-edition Wednesday Wisdom\, unlocking the mysteries and frustrations of the Rosh Hashana service.  \nWith a selection of talks exploring the themes of the day and content geared toward helping us understand and connect to the Rosh Hashana experience.  \nRosh Hashana. A beautiful time in our calendar\, filled with joy and hope for a sweet new year. \nBut also a time of confusion. Fed up of page turning and clock watching\, of sitting in Shul not sure what to say\, think or feel? Let’s unlock the mystery together. \nSchedule: \n19:15 – Mincha followed by Maariv \n19:45 – Welcome and introduction\, by Rabbi Eli \n20:00 – ‘The View from the Gallery – How to connect from behind the Mechitza (and in front of it!)’ ~ Shoshana Landau \n20:45 – Refreshments  \n21:00 – ‘Page Turning and Clock Watching: Reconstructing our New Year’ ~ Samuel Landau \n21:45 – End \n  \nWe are delighted to welcome guest speakers Rabbi Dr. Samuel and Ma’ayan Shoshana Landau\, who will host our keynote talks.  \nFormerly the Rabbi of Kingston and then Barnet Synagogues\, Samuel is a clinical psychologist in the NHS and private practice. Samuel is also an honorary lecturer at UCL\, and draws upon his knowledge and expertise to inspire culture shifts in large institutions such as the British Army.  \nSamuel’s keynote is a tour-de-force of a journey through the three key sections of the special Mussaf service on Rosh Hashana\, tracing its evolution from ancient times through to the modern era\, and providing us with the tools and mindset to connect to it in a profoundly eye-opening way.  \nShoshana\, originally from Australia and a teacher for the New South Wales Board of Jewish Education\, worked in property investment and was also one of the first graduates of the Chief Rabbi’s Ma’ayan programme for women educators.  \nShoshana’s keynote will focus on how to transform what is otherwise a very passive experience for the average congregant (especially for women) into a proactive and deeply spiritual one. \n

SUMMARY:Women's Tefillah Group
DESCRIPTION:Over 30 years ago\, in February 1993\, the women of Stanmore held the very first Orthodox Women’s Tefillah service in the UK.   While early services were held off the shul premises\, the Women’s Tefillah Group moved into the shul in 2012.  \nA service is held once every three months in the Beit Midrash\, which has opened up many opportunities for women to lead services\, lein from a Chumash\, and read the haftorah. We also read specially adapted prayers for loved ones on a yahrzeit or for those who are unwell. We also take great joy in celebrating and blessing new babies and forthcoming brides. At each service\, one or two women give a d’var torah\, and we regularly have girls leading Anim Zemirot.  \nAll women and girls are welcome\, regardless of their knowledge or level of observance. There are opportunities for women and girls to learn to lein or take services.  Contact Jacqui Rudolph or Ruth de Kare Silver for more details  jacqui@stanmoresynagogue.org
