Judaism

Goals: To introduce the topic of Kiddush Hashem; to understand the high value we put on life; To learn about Pikuach Nefesh

Aleph: To Learn about the Ten Commandments To Learn more specifically about the commandment of “Do not Covet”

Bet: To learn about the traits of greed and Jealousy To learn about the Yetzer hara and its role within every Jew

Topic: This peulah deals with the

meeting of Halacha – received from Hashem thousands of years ago at Har Sinai –

with the ever-changing, always advancing technology of the soon to be 21st

century. Some people would like to say that Halacha is outdated, it doesn’t

apply anymore or holds us back from being part of modern society. We know

better. The rabbis of every generation have the ability to apply the principles

of Halacha to any possibility that you can imagine. Their amazing knowledge of

the Torah ensures that for every new product that technology can create, there

is a halacha to go with it, telling us how to use it.

Goal: To show that Halacha\Torah is not old and inapplicable but contains

information to cover all situations that futuristic technology can conceive.

This

peulah aims to instill in all of us a certain appreciation for the adaptability

of Halacha and how it can help to live our lives properly.

Is environmentalism a Jewish value?

OF COURSE!!

To focus on Judaism and its connection to the technological aspects of the new millenium.  We want the chanichim to realize that all the new cool technology that is now available to the world can actually be used l’shem Shamayim. 

This week we can help the chanichim realize that everything ultimately comes from Hashem, even Nintendo!
