Special summer thanks and welcome back!

Stan Alliker, President

I would like to wish all of you a happy and healthy New Year. I would like to commend Cantor Hari Jacobson for her leadership in leading the religious services to the congregation during the summer months and providing guidance to our lay members through the weekly Parsha’s and interpretations for them and more.

Also, a special thank you to Mitch Braun for assisting the cantor by filling in as our lay rabbi in guiding services during the summer.

Cudos to Beth Weinberg and the volunteers who are spending Wednesdays baking for Bubbie’s Bakery to be held on Nov. 24.

Welcome back to Rabbi Mark Gross from the summer break and welcome his return to the Bimah. I also welcome the start of the weekly Torah Saturday Morning Study.

Please note that weekly Monday Night Bingo returned on Oct. 14.

For those of you who cannot attend regularly, I urge you to come to services when you can and be welcomed by your JCMI family!
