Brotherhood’s February meeting (February 25) will include a discussion of the book:  “Manhood for Amateurs: The Pleasures and Regrets of a Husband, Father, and Son” by Michael Chabon.  The book is available at your local library or may be purchased from your favorite book retailer or online merchant and is available in hardcopy or CD as well as through iTunes.  Even if you don’t read the book, you will find the discussion interesting. February’s meeting on February 25 will be at Olé Olé in Suffern at 7:30pm.

This year, Brotherhood will be offering in conjunction with a local retailer a Passover Wine Sale.  Congregants will be able to purchase their favorite wines with the retailer making a donation to Brotherhood for each bottle sold.  Please consider purchasing your wine through this sale.  Not only will you be able to get your favorite wines at a competitive price; you will be helping Brotherhood raise funds to put on the programming we offer the congregation.  Order forms will be available at BHSS and on the Brotherhood website starting in early February.  Be on the look out for further announcements regarding the sale.

Save the date for Brotherhood’s Men’s Seder which will be held on Thursday, March 18.  Those in attendance last year had a wonderful time and this year the evening promises to be even better.  A mailing will be sent to all Brotherhood members regarding this event in late January/early February.

Brotherhood will be once again hosting its Passover Food Drive.  With unemployment even higher than last year, the need is even greater.  More details will be forthcoming in the March edition of Temple Topics.
