Wanting to create a
L'Dor Va-Dor BOOK CLUB
ALL ARE WELCOMED -- Men and Women!
We need just a few more interested in participating!
Ruth Sabo, our new Co-President, would like to start a BOOK CLUB that would meet in participants' homes about once every 6 weeks. We would select fiction and non-fiction books with a Jewish theme OR by a Jewish author. We would prefer not to have someone present the book but rather just have a free-wheeling discussion about the book. We envision having 6 to 12 participants (" the Book Club members"). Please email to Ruth your interest, RuthS115@gmail.com, and please note "Book Club" on the email's subject line.

We are in need of SPONSORS for our Oneg Shabbats. Wouldn't you like to sponsor one of our Friday evening Onegs, in honor of someone or some event, in memory of someone, or JUST BECAUSE! The sponsor simply makes a donation to L'Dor Va-Dor, specifically for sponsorship of an Oneg Shabbat and we do the REST (shopping, schlepping, and preparing)! Oneg sponsorships are available to all, members and/or friends of L'Dor Va-Dor. So, why not sponsor one of our Oneg Shabbats?! Please call or text to 561-968-0688 to setup YOUR SPECIAL DATE!
