Mitzvah opportunity! Temple Emmanuel is now partnered with Wakefield Community Dinners. Held at Most Blessed Sacrament in Wakefield, the Community Dinners happen the 2nd Wednesday of every month, with the opportunity to feed 80+ neighbors and friends from Wakefield, Stoneham, Melrose and towns as far as Medford, Salem and Norwood. Volunteer hours are 3:30-6:30pm. Guests come as families or alone. Although many are experiencing food insecurity, most are impacted with social isolation. We provide a hot meal, salad, bread, desserts, and most importantly, camaraderie. If you’d like to have fun, share smiles, and engage in holy work with Rabbi Greg, please sign up here.

Temple Reads: Shanda, A Memoir of Shame and Secrecy, by Letty Cottin Pogrebin
2024-06-23 19:00 - 21:00
Shanda, A Memoir of Shame and Secrecy
by Letty Cottin Pogrebin
An intimate memoir from a founding editor of Ms. magazine who grew up in a Jewish immigrant family mired in secrets, haunted by their dread of shame and stigma, determined to hide their every imperfection—and in denial or despair when they couldn’t.
“A frank and often amusing tabulation of well-kept family secrets… a story of high-stakes melodrama and surreptitious relations, in which runaway brides, false marriages, lost children and other moral crises abound. But there is more here than mishegas.” —Jake Nevins, New York Times
“The richness of Pogrebin’s stories, the complexity and beauty of her storytelling, and her devastatingly honest soul-baring make Shanda a powerfully stunning piece of life and art.”
—Mayim Bialik, actor, author, neuroscientist, and co-host of Jeopardy (from Amazon)
