Update on Marvin Root

Thank you for your prayers for our elder Marvin Root who underwent open heart surgery for bypass and valve replacement during Chanukah this year. He is recovering well and was able to join us for Sabbath services last week.

Tu B'Shevat  

The month of Shevat is cold and intemperate in beautiful, historic Hudson, WI, but in the land of Israel, the month of Shevat brings the first blossoming of spring. In the land of Israel, the almond trees bloom around the time of Tu Be’Shevat (i.e. Shevat 15). Tu Be’Shevat, considered the New Year for trees, falls on Wednesday, February 4 this year.
