Sukkot
Rabbi Effy managed to find time throughout the intermittent days of Sukkot to drive all around Melbourne to visit, shake & bless on the lulav in the Shule's Sukka Mobile, including with the Mayor of Port Phillip Marcus Pearl. It was wonderful to see the joy on peoples faces and the Sukka Mobile in action

Shemini Atzeret & Simchat Torah summary:
The festivities began with the children's Simchat Torah celebration conducted by Rabbi & Rebbetzin Effy and Shayna on Monday afternoon. The children were treated to singing, kids Hakafot, food and a treat. In the evening the Shule was inundated with the Yeshiva grade 6 class who joined in the Hakofot dancing with the Torah's, interspersed with a wonderful meal. On Tuesday Simchat Torah the Shule honored the Chatan Torah Chazzan Ronny Kowadlo and the Chatan Bereishit Rabbi Effy Block. The highlight was the children, who were called up to the Torah, all huddled under a large Tallit for the Kol Hane'arim ("All the Youth") aliyah. The celebrations then concluded with a lavish kiddush.

Parashat Bereishit Genesis 1:1–6:8G‑d creates the world in six days. On the first day He makes darkness and light. On the second day He forms the heavens, dividing the “upper waters” from the “lower waters.” On the third day He sets the boundaries of land and sea, and calls forth trees and greenery from the earth. On the fourth day He fixes the position of the sun, moon and stars as timekeepers and illuminators of the earth. Fish, birds and reptiles are created on the fifth day; land animals, and then the human being, on the sixth. G‑d ceases work on the seventh day, and sanctifies it as a day of rest. G‑d forms the human body from the dust of the earth, and blows into his nostrils a “living soul.” Originally Man is a single person, but deciding that “it is not good that man be alone,” G‑d takes a "side" from the man, forms it into a woman, and marries them to each other. Adam and Eve are placed in the Garden of Eden, and commanded not to eat from the “Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.” The serpent persuades Eve to violate the command, and she shares the forbidden fruit with her husband. Because of their sin, it is decreed that man will experience death, returning to the soil from which he was formed, and that all gain will come only through struggle and hardship. Man is banished from the Garden. Eve gives birth to two sons, Cain and Abel. Cain quarrels with Abel and murders him, and becomes a rootless wanderer. A third son, Seth, is born to Adam; Seth’s eighth-generation descendant, Noah, is the only righteous man in a corrupt world.
