Message from Lee Kirschner, President

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun.
And I say it's all right.
Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter.
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here.
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun.
And I say it's all right.
Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces.
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here.
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun.
And I say it's all right.
As the famous Beatles once said, 'it's all right.'

Remember that we are all here for you and for one another. Kindness, compassion and understanding are even more prevalent at this time.

On this Shabbat, I wish all of you and your families health, strength and peace as we continue to embark on this challenging journey for another day. We will all be together again in our sacred home of Har Zion.

Your feedback is always welcome and very much appreciated. I can be reached at lkirschner@harziontemple.org .

Shabbat Shalom!

Please be aware that it is a Federal law that all alcohol shipments MUST have an over 21 signature. Fedex will make three attempts to deliver. They will send you a tracking number so that you can see when the wine is scheduled to come. Also if you are not going to be home it is vital that you notify them, since any time a case comes back to them they may have to charge you for the shipping coming and going since they are required to pay for the shipping coming and going.
