Congregation Neveh Shalom, Israel 360 and the Jewish Federation of Greater Portland are pleased to invite you to a free online screening of the documentary, Upheaval: The Journey of Menachem Begin, to be enjoyed anytime between October 31-November 5, 2021. Then join us for a free Zoom discussion with the film’s director, Jonathan Gruber, on Thursday, November 4, 2021 at 7:00pm.

Watch the incredible life story of former Israeli Prime Minister, Menachem Begin—imprisoned by the Soviets, orphaned by the Holocaust, crowned Peacemaker by the Nobel Prize Committee–in this captivating documentary. With evocative imagery, rarely seen archival materials, and revealing interviews with those who knew him, Upheaval portrays the life and essence of this brilliant, tough, complex, loving, and proud man who never compromised when the survival
of Israel and the Jewish people were at stake.

Torah Troop for 3rd-5th Graders

1st and 3rd Shabbat every month at 10:00am

Torah Troop allows families at Congregation Neveh Shalom to move into the main sanctuary while still enjoying youth-oriented activity. At 10:00am, families meet in the main service. After the beginning Torah service, youth join their friends for a lesson on the Torah portion (parsha) of the week with adult leaders, and come back to help lead the Adon Olam at the end of the service.

As always, we end with our community for lunch!
