This Wednesday night at 7:30 p.m. Rev Meeter and Rabbi Andy Bachman will lead an interfaith study session about homelessness in the Beth Elohim's Sukkah, a temporary dwelling built out branches and agriculture. Jews are expected to eat and sleep in their Sukkah during the holiday, which lasts a week or so.

According to Judaism 101, Sukkot is a joyous holiday that comes right on the heels of Yom Kippur (The Day of Atonement) one of the most solemn. It commemorates the forty-year period during which the Jews were wandering in the desert, living in temporary shelters.
Agriculturally, Sukkot is a harvest holiday.

The Beth Elohim sukkah was designed and built by Gia Wolf and John Hartmann, with heartfelt assistance from Adam Iarussi and Dan Silverstein.

"It's an original and a deep expression of creativity and generosity of spirit in perfect keeping with the Festival." says Bachman.

A discussion of homelessness sounds like a very appropriate activity durig Sukkot. Sounds like an interesting night. I will definitely try to be there
