BABY NEWS
Mazel Tov! Ben and Daphna Kapnik gave birth to a beautiful baby boy on February 17. Baby and mom are beautiful (!), and not quite up to leaving the house, so there will not be a public bris.
We're hoping to celebrate with our community at sometime in the future!
If you'd like to send congratulations to the mom and dad, you can contact koheletadmin@gmail.com for their address.
L'chaim!
Deanne and Stephen

Thank you to all who have remitted annual dues. To those not yet in the fold please take a moment to do this online now. Our programming and assurance depends on your participation. If you are able, extra donations at this time are also very much appreciated as our dues have remained stable. Help get us launched for a good start by increasing our financial reserves.

Do you love a good party? Fun and frivolity? Hangings and Hamentaschen? Masks and Megillahs? Please consider signing up to organize Kohelet's Purim celebration on March 23rd. It's wide open, and a great way to exercise your creativity (and we all know that the key to any successful holiday chair is delegate, delegate, delegate.

A TOUR OF PROVERBS/MISHLEI WITH NEIEL
Proverbs 6
Lazybones, go to the ant;
Study its ways and learn.
Without leaders, officers or rulers,
It lays up its stores during the summer,
Gathers in it stood at the harvest;
How long will you lie there?
When will you wake from your sleep?
|
|

Here is where you can sign up for Shabbat participation and for committees.
Thank you in advance for your good work! |
