- To
the Berman Community: Thank you for the emails, phone
calls and expressions of empathy during the shiva week for
my Mother, Molly Naider z"l. I apologize for the
phone calls I was unable to take and for not getting back to
those of you who reached out. Your concern was very
comforting. May we share smachot in the future. Fred Naider
SHUL ACTIVITIES, EVENTS AND
REMINDERS
- Members are asked to keep
their cell phone numbers up to date on ShulCloud: As most of you know,
the community runs a text (SMS) service to notify members
of bereavements and funeral arrangements. We are now in a
position to tie this service more closely to the ShulCloud membership database.
Please help facilitate this process by keeping your
information up to date, as follows:
- Login
to the shul website (use the "Forgot my
Password" link if you need to):
- To change your own
details: https://www.bermanshul.org/members/my-profile.php#contact.
- To change details
of other family members (if you have "rights"): https://www.bermanshul.org/members/manage-users.php, click on the name
of the relevant individual.
- In the "Contact Info"
tab, make sure that your mobile phone number is correct
and listed in proper international format, e.g., Israeli
numbers +972(50)1234567.
- Now select the
“Bereavement SMS notifications” tab on the right and
make your selection (you can always change it at a later
date). SMS messages are sent only to Adult members - the
setting for Children will be ignored.
- חברי
בית הכנסת מתבקשים לעדכן את מספרי הטלפון שלהם ב-ShulCloud:
כפי שרובכם יודעים, הקהילה מנהלת שירות הודעות טקסט
(SMS) כדי לשלוח הודעות אבל לחברים ולעדכן במועדי לוויות.
כיום, אנו יכולים להדק יותר את הקשר בין שירות זה לבין מאגר
הנתונים של ShulClould. אנא עזרו לנו לקדם את התהליך ועדכנו את
הפרטים האישיים שלכם באופן הבא:

coordinating the mini-minyan over the past few years.
- עידכון מיני
מניין. תודה לשמואל (שמויקי) ברקוביץ' על התנדבותו
