SHUL ACTIVITIES, EVENTS AND REMINDERS תזכורות, אירועים ופעילויות של בית הכנסת
- Yizkor. On the last day of Pesach, we will not be reading names of deceased shul members. Rather, to honor their memory, we have posted a list of the deceased who were members at the time of their passing, which can be seen here (women) and here (men), and on the Noticeboard.
- From the President and the Board. As all indicators for COVID are looking promising, we think we see the light at the end of the year-long tunnel. Accordingly, we anticipate resuming some things in the near future that we have not done for awhile – seeing the inside of the shul, regular face-to-face shiurim, kiddushim, and our traditional holiday celebrations. Stay tuned! We look forward to once again seeing those of you - young and old - who have stayed away during the past year. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you who have helped us meet our spiritual needs and maintaining our sense of community and our good health. Full and proper acknowledgement will come at the AGM (set for 22 May, mark your calendars) but at this time we would like to give special thanks to Emanuel and Pearl for their dedication and tireless efforts in running the Corona committee.
- Mini minyan is back! Weekly on Shabbat mornings at 10am on the steps outside the yeshiva dining hall (weather permitting, since it is outdoors).
