Along with other synagogues in the area, we have a bin in our lobby collecting non-perishable food to donate to Second Harvest to help feed the needy in our communities.

During this time of year, as we have more people entering our building, we'd like to encourage everyone to bring any foods they may be able to donate to our bin to share with those in need.

In addition, if anyone is motivated to also provide help for the people of Puerto Rico and/or the Jewish community in St. Thomas, both of which have been ravaged by three strong hurricanes this season, please contact Rabbi Henkin at  [email protected] and he will share some suggestions with you.

Membership and the Bikkur Cholim Committee
Help us be the best community we can be!
 
If you have a special birthday or anniversary, let us know so that we can celebrate with you!
If you know a member of our congregation is sick or in the hospital, please make sure Rabbi Henkin, Motti, and/or Sidney Karp know so that we can visit them and support them.  
The Talmud says that one who visits a sick person takes away one sixtieth of his/her disease; help us fulfill the mitzvah of bikkur cholim, visiting the sick, by letting us know when someone needs us!
