    By Rabbi Alicia Magal

    The JCSVV offers soul-enriching services, programs, and classes, all listed on the synagogue website, jcsvv.org. Visitors are welcome to attend services after a security check. Those who cannot attend in person can access the service through zoom.

    Erev Shabbat services begin at 5:30 pm on Friday, February 14. The Torah portion is Yitro (Exodus 18:1 – 20:23), named for Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, who advises Moses to delegate leadership roles. The Israelites camp at the foot of Mt. Sinai.  Amidst thunderous clouds of smoke and lightning God delivers the Ten Commandments to Moses for all the people. The service includes prayers of healing for loved ones, and Kaddish, the Mourner’s prayer in memory of those who have passed away around this date. The oneg refreshments are sponsored by Lisa and Eugene Meyer in honor of Lisa’s birthday, and the birth of their granddaughters.

    Meditation class, led by Rosalie Malter and Rabbi Magal, will meet on February 19 at 4:00 pm on zoom. Participants are led in a guided meditation based on elements in the week’s Torah reading.

    Torah study, led by Rabbi Magal, will meet on Thursday, February 20 at 4:00 pm on zoom.  The Torah portion for that week is  Mishpatim (Exodus 21:24 1 – 24:18), detailing many laws to assure justice for all people. Discussion enables participants to make the ancient stories relevant to our own lives.

    The Social Action Committee is collecting cans or boxes of non-perishable foods, as well as infant formula and feminine hygiene products, for the local Sedona food pantry.  Please drop off your donations in the bin provided for collections located at the bottom of the stairs in the parking lot.

    The Jewish Community of Sedona and the Verde Valley, located at 100 Meadowlark Drive off Route 179 in Sedona, is a welcoming, egalitarian, inclusive congregation dedicated to building a link from the past to the future by providing religious, educational, social and cultural experiences.  Office telephone: 928 204-1286.

    It Takes a Lifetime and Sometimes Even More

    By Amaya  Gayle

    Sedona, AZ — It takes a lifetime (perhaps lifetimes) of stretching and expanding, ripping and tearing, just to move through one’s predispositions, to meet one’s inbred resistance and evolve to the grace of simple tolerance. During this precious part of the journey, it feels like you are taking the steps, are choosing right, left or straight ahead, that you are in the game.
