OK, by order of date:

Judaism Decoded sheds light on the mysteries surrounding biblical interpretation. How do we know our interpretation is true? If it is true, why is it subject to differences of opinion? And with so many interpretations to choose from, how do we know which one reflects its original intent? - WED. APR. 29: Challah Bake Volunteer with Seniors at "The Hampton"
YJP will head to the Brookdale Galleria (formerly The Hampton) to make challah with seniors! Make their (and your) day and put a smile on everyone's faces! - FRI. MAY 1: "Cinco de Mayo" First Fridays Shabbat Dinner.
