Our website's makeover is more than a year old now, having been unveiled last year around Rosh Hashana.  Some features have been added, and more are planned.  Today, I have made a change to the main menu to the left of this page.  The change is subtle.  Many of you wouldn't have even noticed if I hadn't pointed it out.  It's designed to highlight some of the more popular aspects of our site, such as the Candle Lighting times and This Week's Parsha.

These two features tend to be well read, and frequently searched items on our site, so they have been grouped together and take a prominent place in the menu placement.

On another note, now that the new school year is well under way, I would like to remind university students of our plan to have a student-focused area of this website.  Any student interested in acting as a liason/editor should send an email to This email address is being protected from spambots.

Recently, I learned that our rabbi is a frequent guest on the CJAM radio program "Boker Tov", and that past programs are available for download from the website.  I've compiled audio clips from past appearances, and will be uploading new clips each time the rabbi makes an appearance on the program.

The Boker Tov program runs on Thursday mornings, from 8:30AM - 10:30AM on FM 99.1. The first half-hour is generally devoted to talk with various guests.  The remaining time is devoted to Yiddish and Hebrew music, comedy, and other content that visitors to this website might enjoy.

Please listen in, and support the University's volunteer radio station during the pledge drive going on from now until November 6th, 2010.  Visit the website (www.cjam.ca) for further details and to find out how to stream this program live!

In order to access the clips of past programs, please use the "The Rabbi on Radio" link on the menu bar at the left of the screen.

We've made a great start, but there's still a long way to go to get enough food cans to build a giant menorah at Devonshire Mall.  Once the menorah is built, the cans of food will be donated to the Windsor Unemployment Help Centre, where they will be used to help feed Windsor's needy.

Join us at 4:00PM on December 6, 2010 at the Devonshire Mall for the official lighting of the Giant Menorah.  Click here, or on the picture of the flyer below to get your own printable copy of the invitation.
