Rosh Chodesh

Rosh Chodesh means Head of the Month in Hebrew; it is the first day of every new month. In ancient times, each Rosh Chodesh was a festival day, and women traditionally celebrated the New Moon with songs and stories and, of course, with friendship and food! Please join us as we chat, nosh, and learn all about Rosh Chodesh Cheshvan. As it is said, “in the darkest time is the greatest potential for light”. 

Sunday, October 15 from 2:00pm - 4:00pm in the BCRC Library

Please RSVP to womenofbcrc@bcrcva.org by Friday, October 13. Please bring a nosh to share!
