Berkshire Jewish Women are invited to celebrate Rosh Chodesh Ellul.   Sunday 16 August, 8pm at the home of Judi Lyons.  Noya has kindly agreed to lead and we will be showing the film The Lady in Number 6.   Her ability to forgive is remarkable and something we should take with us as we approach the Yomim Noraim.  Contact us for location and/or directions.
