Dear Friends,
   If you are an avid follower of the Olympics like me, you may have seen the electrifying 100 meter dash last Sunday, the winner of whom is dubbed the world's fastest man.
   Did you know that 100 years ago in the same place, at the Paris Olympics of 1924, that race was won by a British Jew named Harold Abrahams?
   His story was immortalized in the 1981 Academy Award winning film "Chariots of Fire". 
   On the centennial of this remarkable feat, we'll delve into this Jewish story of the Olympics, as well as that of two other Olympics, Berlin (1936) and Munich (1972)  at our Shabbat Evening Service (7:30 PM).

Shabbat shalom,
Rabbi Schwartz
