It’s another slow week in the “news department” so this will be another short message.
Services will be led by Robert Adler this Friday night. If you would like to participate in this or any part of our future services, please reach out to Rabbi Nancy, Ken Wolf or Robert Adler, to let them know.
Please remember that we will NOT have services next Friday, May 27, due to the Memorial Day weekend.
Rabbi Nancy has set her schedule through the end of August and, while these dates have been added to the calendar on our Website, I am also including them here for your reference:
- June 10 and 17
- July 8 and 22
- August 12 and 26
Everyone is also invited to attend the weekly Torah Study group that meets each Saturday morning at 9:30, at the Temple. (Note> Torah Study WILL be held on Saturday, May 28.)
You should have also received a communication from Howard Zeff regarding the details for the evening of Friday, June 10 when we will be celebrating Erwin Coleman’s 96th birthday. Just in case, here is the communication he shared:
Wow! Erwin Coleman is celebrating his 96th birthday on May 30. At Temple B’nai Israel, we want to share in this milestone occasion with Erwin and his family. Mark the date June 10, 2016. This is a Friday night and here are the plans. We will begin the evening with a Shabbat service starting at 6:30pm led by Rabbi Nancy Tunick. Immediately following the service, at 7:00pm, we will have a birthday celebration for Erwin by having a wine/cheese/food party. This will last as long as you would like to stay and fellowship with Erwin, his family and each other. As a matter of fact, we will have the opportunity to toast Erwin and make comments or tell stories about Erwin Coleman, our honoree. We will also have a birthday cake.
This is how we are asking each of you to assist: Please bring a bottle of wine to share with one another. Please bring a small finger food dish to share. The Coleman family will be providing the fine cheeses. This will be a lot of fun, and what better reason could we have to celebrate? Here is the recap…
Date…June 10, 2016
Time…6:30pm Shabbat service…7:00pm birthday party
Where…Temple B’nai Israel
What to bring…Wine and finger food (the only gift requested)

We hope to see you all!!!!
As always, if you have any announcements you would like for me to share with our membership, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me.
I hope you all have a wonderful week and, as I will not be able to attend services this week, I wish you all a peaceful Shabbat and I will look forward to seeing you on June 3rd.
Shalom!
Traci Welch
