The Keddem Web page is undergoing a significant overhaul. If you find a problem, please send me (Alan Marcum)
email,
and let me know what's wrong. The
old version of our Web page
is still available, if you need it, though it's now out-of-date.
As the saying goes, please forgive our dust, and the inconvenience.
(We're frequently updating the
announcements
section. And, here's a
menu
of other Keddem pages.)
Keddem Congregation is a Jewish congregation, affiliated with the
Reconstructionist
Movement, through the Federation of Reconstructionist Congregations and Havurot (FRCH). Our Congregation's founders were motivated by the style and spirit of services at Stanford Hillel.
The Keddem Congregation is based on four
principles.
We are:
inclusive,
egalitarian,
participatory, and
Reconstructionist.
We hold various
events and services, typically at the
Albert L. Schultz Jewish Community Center,
655 Arastradero Road, Palo Alto, +1-415-493-9400.
Any person over 13 years of age may apply for
membership
in Keddem Congregation. For additional membership information,
please call us at +1-415-323-4796, send us
email,

In addition to information about Keddem Congregation, we also provide
links to various
other Judaic information
available through the Web.
It's Omer counting time!

We're slowly building up the collection of Keddem information available here. For now, we have the following:
Our address is:
As a community service, Keddem is providing this PostScript rendition of the 5755 calendar, with thanks to Dr. Zvi Har'El.
Dr. Har'El is at the
Technion
in Haifa, Israel; the
sources
for his programs -- luach, for printing a Hebrew lunar calendar,
and taarich, for calculating the Hebrew date -- are available
from the Technion. In addition, executable version of the programs
are available, compiled
quad-fat for NEXTSTEP.
In addition, David Skoll of Carleton University provides a Hebrew Date service, which includes a short list of upcoming holidays. (Carleton University is in Ottawa, Canada; note this for when the date changes.)
