No service at Beth Emanuel

Just a reminder that there will be no service at Beth Emanuel next Friday night (4/3).  Instead there will be Seders held at different houses, this is a departure from the one large Seder usually held at Beth Emanuel.

Dance colors change

Shalom Dancers,
 
Please note that the colors for the remainder of March and for April 11th will be RED AND WHITE due to the upcoming Passover holiday.  
 
We will be doing special dances every Friday evening, which we will learn at our Thursday night dance practices.  
 
At the Friday night service on March 27th we will wear all white with red sashes and use red finger scarves.  I will provide some of the sashes and scarves.  Lura will explain more on Thursday night.
 
Thank you beautiful dancers. 
 
Dancing for the Lord,
 
Nancy

Changes to dance schedule for Feb.!

Dear Dancers,

Sorry to add to your inbox so soon with another email from me. However, there is an important time change that has come up and it was necessary that I make everyone aware so there is no disappointment.

WHAT?...  The next three Sunday practices (February 8th, 15th & 22nd) will be from 2PM-5PM.  Please especially note the earlier ending time

WHY?... Some of you are aware that many of us dancers have also joined a wonderful tambourine group. (By the way, we'd love to have you join us on Monday nights at 7:30pm-9:00pm at St. Matthew's Room C1...Red door off the playground.) The Victory Tambourines, as the group is named, is scheduled to march in the Lost Dutchman's Days Parade in Apache Junction on February 28th.  So in preparation, we are planning to practice our marching skills in the St. Matthew's parking lot on the above Sundays from 5:00pm-6:00pm while it is still daylight. So, we hope you will understand and know that this is a temporary change just for the above stated Sundays.

ONE MORE THING!
I failed to mention in the recent February schedule another 'save-the-date' event.  It is March 5th (Thursday) from 10AM-11AM at Chris Ridge Senior Living in Phoenix. Cathy Wilson of Chosen People will be presenting a Purim (Story of Esther) program and we will be.....dancing! This is always a joyous event and another opportunity to be blessed and be a blessing!
