A Field Trip to Temple Beth-El

Abraham is said to be the father of the world's monotheistic religions; Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Though our beliefs and the expression of our faiths may be different we share a common ancestor. Not only that, we share a common humanity or, as one of the Morning Prayer collects says, "O God, you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth." So how about we meet some of those with whom we share a common humanity, one blood, and Abraham? 

On November 18, 2016, we will have the opportunity to visit Temple Beth-El in San Antonio, a synagogue in the Reform Tradition of Judaism, and participate in the shabbat service that evening.

We'll begin at 5:30 p.m. with a tour of the building, history, and introduction to the liturgy. The shabbat liturgy begins at 6:30 p.m. Afterwards we will go out for dinner. 

Everyone is invited. If you want to go please let Julie know so we can make travel plans and let Temple Beth-El know how many to expect that evening. We are also planning a visit to a mosque in San Antonio. Watch for more information.
