Dear Friend
What a very special month we’ve spent together praying, studying, fasting and finally celebrating. The month of holidays are over and we have filled are spiritual suitcases, as the Rebbe described it, to the top with warmth, inspiration and strength.
Now, we go back to our day to day lives, and our daily goal should be to unpack a little inspiration
from our experiences over Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur, Sukkot and Simchat torah!
We feel tremendous gratitude to the entire community for your participation and help. So many people have helped make this the special time that it was, and I thank all of you- those who I have mentioned below and anyone who I inadvertently fail to mention.
Thank you to: All of our Kiddush Sponsors over the month: George and Elaine Haas, Tzion and Bracha Daneshrad,
Kim and Richard Mayer, Rivkie and Yossie Chesney, Adam and Michele Stross, Rabbi Yossie and Chanie Nemes, Elias Matian and Shorak Matian, Alan and Mushkie Martinez, Steven Katz, Rotem and Belinda Dahan, Avi and Hadassah Walker, Grace Walther, Mendy and Chavie Schechter and Robert and Barbara Namer.
