- Torah readers needed for
Sefer Vayikra. To volunteer, please contact Rami Shanani. And a
request from Rami: The list of Tora readers is hanging on the
bulletin board at the entrance to the shul. To prevent
misunderstandings or scheduling glitches, anyone who is slated
to read should confirm by checking the list that they are
correctly assigned, and anyone who is planning a simcha at
which a family member would like to read, is asked to book
their event as early as possible by contacting Jerry Kriger.
- נפתחה ההרשמה
לבעלי קריאה לספר ויקרא. נא לפנות לרמי שאנני. בקשה אישית
שלי: רשימת בעלי הקריאה תלויה על הלוח בכניסה לבית הכנסת בין
השאר על מנת למנוע אי נעימויות. אני מבקש מכולם לעיין ברשימה
לפחות פעם אחת בשלשה חודשים ולפנות אלי בכל מקרה שמתעוררת בעיה
או שאלה. כל מי שמתכנן לקיים שמחה בר מצוה , חתונה... במהלך השנה
הקרובה בבית הכנסת מתבקש לפנות ולתאם זאת עם ג'רי קריגר כמה
שיותר מוקדם. רמי
