Rabbi Jonathan Keren Black, of Leo Baeck congregation in Melbourne will be visiting Hobart on the
weekend of January 21-22 with his family. He will be conducting the Progressive Service in shul on
Sat 22 January, which co-incidentally will be the Shabbat closest to Tu B’Shevat. Rabbi Keren Black
is known to many within the Union for Progressive Judaism as the “Green Rabbi”, so it’s opportune
that he’ll be with us at that time.
The news is that YIDS ON WHEELS* will be in town late January 2005 and plan to be in shul on
Saturday 29 January. [*For those who don’t know what this means, they’re Jewish folk [touring
Tasmania] on motorcycles!]
