On Nov. 21, a historic event for the Jewish Community of Summerville will take place. The first Jewish religious service and gathering of the Summerville Chavurah will take place.

This is a first for the Summerville Jewish Community and transcends Jewish belief systems. While the event and Chavurah are sponsored under the auspices of Kahal Kadosh Beth Elohim of the Reform congregation, participants of all Jewish disciplines Reform, Conservative or Orthodox are welcome.

The inagural meting of the Summerville/North area Chavurah will be held Saturday at 6 p.m. There will be a short Havdalah Service followed by a social/fellowship get together.

Havdalah welcomes the week by closing the Sabbath. The Havdalah will be led by Donna Spencer. Doris and Roy Meyers have agreed to open their home for this special evening.

Their home is located at 116 W. 5th South Street, Unit B in Summerville.
