This year time seems to be moving at an especially fast speed! Can you believe that Chanukah is right around the corner! On Sunday, December 4, Beit AmiChai will have Sunday School and High School Havurah at BYBS. Times will be the same as always, 9:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m. for Sunday School and 10:30-11:45 a.m. for High School Havurah.
Our students will have a chance to shop at the BYBS Chanukah gift bazaar. On Sunday, December 11th we will be back at Temple Anshe Sholom and our students will have the opportunity to shop at the TAS Chanukah gift shop. We hope our parents will stop by each of the gift shops for all of your Chanukah shopping too!
We will celebrate Chanukah at Sunday School on December 18th, thank you in advance to our Room Parents for helping that morning. And to Sigy Rafalovitz who will be making her amazing sufganiyot!
On Friday, December 9th we will be having our Family/Youth Shabbat. Youth choir will sing and we will have a special ceremony presenting prayerbooks to our Hebrew School students. Services are at Temple Anshe Sholom at 7:00 p.m.
There will be no Sunday School, Hebrew School or High School Havurah from December 25, 2016 – January 8, 2017.

This is is always such a wonderful and busy time of the year as we celebrate some of the most meaningful and joyous holidays.
On September 25th our students had the opportunity to participate with Louisa Hext and the Forgiveness program. This was such a great way to enter into the high holiday period.
Our Hebrew School students have been busy preparing for the Erev Sukkot and Simchat Torah services. They have been putting forth great effort and it really has showed in their ability to go up to the Bima and read their prayers so well and with such confidence.
We look forward to some of our students and our youth choir participating in the Kristallnacht service on Friday, November 4th at 7:00 p.m. at BYBS.
