Beth Yeshurun is joining Faith Organizations across Houston - Muslim, Christian, and Jewish - in a friendly competition to collect food for the Houston Food Bank during National Hunger Awareness Month.
The competition kicks off September 1st and ends on the 30th. We’ll keep track of food collected and post the latest results weekly here on this website. Clergy and educators at the faith centers will provide faith-based messaging about hunger in their communities. Please contribute your non-perishable, not-expired foods throughout the month of September! We will keep you posted on our progress and how we are doing in the "competition"!
We will have donation bins: In the Bender Levy Lobby (the synagogue entrance at the "carpool" lane) In the Administrative Lobby (where the staff and Rabbi's offices are)

What happens when a rabbi and a heretic meet? Sound crazy? Well, it’s not! There are many such fascinating stories in our history. Join us as we explore what happens when two opposites meet with Associate Professor Michal Bar-Asher Siegal. She is a faculty member at The Goldstein-Goren Department of Jewish Thought, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, and was the Rosen Family Career Development Chair in Judaic Studies at Ben Gurion University (2012-2016). In this academic year, she is the Horace Goldsmith Visiting Professor in Judaic Studies at Yale University.
