Upcoming YIB Events
Biweekly Halacha Discussion
Biweekly on Tuesdays, 8:30 PM, via Zoom: The “Everyday Halacha For Everyone” biweekly shiur is an opportunity to review, learn, and discuss with Rabbi Hellman a few halachot and how they apply in our lives. We hope most topics will come from questions and suggestions. If you have a suggested topic or a halachik question please forward them to Rabbi Hellman.
The planned topic for each session is sent out via email, usually on the day of the shiur. Recordings of each session are available a few days after it meets. If you would like to view the recordings, they can be found on the YIB learning and video platform, yibrookline.yuja.com.
Together on Tuesdays
Tuesdays, 1:00 PM, at YIB: Most Tuesdays at 1:00 PM, YIB is hosting a lunch with learning and discussion. The program, which is a project of YIB's NaTaN Committee, is entitled "Together on Tuesdays" and is open to all, but specifically designed for retirees and senior members of the community to stay connected, see friends, and enjoy a stimulating program. Each week the group reads, studies and discusses a story from the Talmud and the lessons that it conveys.
Please share this program with others even if they are not members of YIB. If you have any questions, suggestions, or would need a ride to get to the program, please contact Donna Lupatkin (dlupatkin@aol.com) or Rabbi Hellman.
This program was made possible by a grant from the Brookline Community Foundation.

YIB's Learning and Video Platform
We are very excited to announce our learning and video platform which can be found at yibrookline.yuja.com. You can find divrei Torah and classes from Rabbi Hellman, members of the community, and many visiting teachers. Watch a featured video, browse the organized library of different series of classes, or search the library for a topic or person. We will be continuing to add video and audio recordings, so check it out and send any feedback to Rabbi Hellman.
The development of the new website was supported by a gift from the Zimble family in appreciation for all the wonderful Torah received at YIB over many years and in the hope of continuing connections to the YIB community from afar.
