ON THE THRESHOLD OF ROSH-HA-SHANNAH

  Taraz JCC women's club has held a meeting dedicated to Rosh-ha-Shannah celebration. The meeting helped "Edigot" members to find answers for many questions, such as: why Rosh-ha-Shannah is considered to be the "head" of the year, what is written in the Torah about it, what customs and practices are observed that day etc.

  To make it easier for the women to get prepared to Rosh-ha-Shannah and to understand what a festive meal is, the Community Center provided them with a visual aid - a Rosh-ha-Shannah laid table. At the head of it was a stuffed fish prepared by one of the club members. Sweet curd pie was non the less tasty.

  After the preparations the women devoted themselves to their appearance. They had a massage and make-up; a cosmetologist demonstrated her skill on the club members' faces.

  The meeting ended with learning a new Jewish song. Now "Edigot" is ready to the New Year both physically and spiritually. So, join us, dear readers!
