Healing Circle with Rachel Layne, Please join us for this FREE healing event in Jacksonville. We start by chanting the sacred sound of OM, and dig deeper into the angelic wisdom of the Archangels. Each Healing Circle is focused on a different theme, to help direct the healing. Healing Circle ends with distance or hands on Reiki healing.
Congregation Ahavath Chesed is proud to host the fifth Annual Jewish Food Festival on Sunday, May 1, beginning at 11:30 a.m.
Matzo ball soup, corned beef sandwiches, kugel, kishke and kreplach are just some of the delicious dishes that will be available. The “All You Can Nosh” format returns, so bring your appetite. Individual tickets are $20, and a family bundle – good for up to two adults and children (16 and younger) in your family – costs $50. Children under age 3 will be admitted for free. All festival events are held indoors, including a Kids Zone, which will have child-friendly food and activities.
Bubbe’s Bake Off, an annual highlight of the festival, returns. There’s only one category this time, but there are two divisions – adults and children (13 and younger). Another favorite, the L’Chaim Wine Wall, filled with wines of all varieties, also returns.
The festival is The Temple’s largest fundraiser, and it would not be possible without the support of the many sponsors and vendors. For more information, contact Sarah Fraden at srfraden@yahoo.
