Rabbi's Message
I know this will come as a big shock to you, but I will be travelling to Israel this week for three days. The purpose of this mission (which is markedly different than my most recent visit) is to lead a multi-faceted delegation of rabbis from across the US and Canada for Israel Bonds. We will learn together and see the latest and greatest in Israeli innovation, infrastructure and Chesed.

I am also proud to be taking the helm as the Chairman of the Rabbinic Council of Israel Bonds. Our Shul and our community have made such an impact on the State of Israel and her vibrant growth. I am pleased to continue in this steadfast tradition which was started by the giants of our community on whose shoulders we stand. I look forward to reporting on this mission when I return next Shabbat.

Shabbat Shalom

WE ARE EXCITED TO WELCOME NEWLY ENGAGED COUPLE RACHEL HOFFMAN AND DOVID ABRAMOWITZ TO ETZ CHAIM THIS SHABBAT AS CANDIDATES FOR THE YOUTH DIRECTOR POSITION.
