A Message from our President
August
Our lay-led Shabbat services have that laid-back summer flavor. Each Saturday
morning, a different volunteer shares an individual twist on the week’s Torah portion
in a prepared dvar. The familiar service flows with a nice variety of remixed roles
and honors each week. People stepping up. People stretching to try something new.
Or helping by just being there.
Those in town for our summertime Friday evening dinner and service on July 9th
had a lovely time, as well. <>
Of course, there’s a new feel to this familiar time, here in our new home. We continue
to settle in more comfortably. Take a look at the space between our two Yahrzeit
plaques in the hallway approaching our sanctuary. We have Ron Kushner to thank
for mounting more of our familiar treasures there, including the amazingly heavy
marble Ten Commandments plaque that used to hang in both our Nichols Street
and Washington Street sanctuaries. Our beautiful new storage wall adds function,
grace and dignity to this new sanctuary. And our new ark, currently being crafted
for us, will complete the room. <>
The air conditioning works, too! Come on over. <>
B’Shalom,
