Harvest Celebrations in my Faith

Harvests have always been vital to humans, and cultures around the world have given thanks for them. In Britain and northern Europe this is usually in late summer and early autumn. Come & tell us about celebrations in your faith, and hear others’. If you wish to bring any of your own produce or foods traditionally served at your harvest celebrations, they would be most welcome but we are not expecting dinner.

Does money make the world go round, or is the love of money the root of all evil? What does your faith say about wealth and poverty, charity or ‘deserving or undeserving’ rich or poor? Does faithful living bring rewards in heaven or earth? Share your ideas or interpretation of your scriptures, and listen to those of others.

Are you searching for information about your family background, or interested in the history of this minority community, or looking for something to do in central Sheffield? The British Jewish community’s presence might be more obvious in larger urban places like London and Manchester but smaller cities also have rich histories of Jewish migration and influence. These histories are often uncovered in archive collections and can help to remind a city’s residents and current community that those stories exist and of their legacy through to today.

Our latest display: Records of Jewish Life in Sheffield 1849 – 1976 showcases the “Sheffield Jewish Archives”. It features photos, correspondence, minute books, pamphlets and even a set of mausoleum keys!  It runs from now until 10th August on the first floor of Sheffield Central Library. You can find out more about the display here. With thanks to funding from the Jane Goodman Charitable Trust.

This was the date agreed at our AGM and circulated to members ; it is not being changed to avoid a clash with England’s Euro football semi-final on Wednesday, but for those who wish to watch the football, Thursday will be more convenient for the dinner.

The post on this website has been updated – but here are the correct details again:
